Behavioral Responses of Rural and Urban Shrews to Sound Disturbance

Flávio G. Oliveira collected data and R code for statistical analysis in the paper 'Behavioral responses of rural and urban greater white-toothed shrews (Crocidura russula) to sound disturbance'. The dataset is intended to reproduce the analysis from the associated research. It is available via the paperswithcode platform under an Open Access (green) license.

Use Cases

• Reproduce statistical analyses of behavioral responses based on the described experimental data.
• Study differences in stress or activity levels between rural and urban animal populations based on the described behavioral data.
• Model the impact of acoustic disturbance on small mammal behavior based on the described experimental setup.

Strengths

• Includes the R code used for statistical analysis, facilitating reproducibility.
• Data is associated with a specific, peer-reviewed scientific paper.

Limitations

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