Cerrado Plant and Bee Pollinator Diversity in Relation to Fire Events

Caio S. Ballarin's 30.8 MB repository contains raw and processed data on flowering plants and their bee pollinators in the Cerrado biome. The data supports analyses of how fire events influence fine-scale species diversity across space and time. It includes R scripts for data processing and statistical analysis, corresponding to a 2026 article in the Annals of Botany.

Use Cases

• Modeling fire-driven changes in plant diversity based on survey data.
• Analyzing spatial and temporal patterns of bee pollinator communities.
• Studying plant-pollinator interaction networks in a fire-prone ecosystem.

Strengths

• Includes both raw and processed data, enabling reproducibility checks.
• Accompanied by R scripts for data processing and statistical analysis, facilitating reuse.
• Associated with a peer-reviewed article (DOI: 10.1093/aob/mcag033).

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
