Owl-Prey Interaction Data and R Scripts for a Semi-Arid Ecosystem Over 24 Years

24 years of data on climate-driven resource availability and its impact on owl-prey interactions in a semi-arid ecosystem. The dataset includes R scripts for statistical analyses, associated databases, and input matrices, authored by Jazmin Quiroz and last updated in May 2026. The data is packaged in an RAR archive and is 898.7 KB in size.

Use Cases

• Modeling temporal trends in predator-prey interactions based on the 24-year time series.
• Analyzing the influence of climate-driven resource availability on ecological communities.
• Reproducing statistical analyses of ecological time-series data using the provided R scripts.

Strengths

• Covers a 24-year temporal span, enabling long-term trend analysis.
• Includes R scripts for reproducibility of statistical analyses.
• Released under the permissive CC-BY-4.0 license.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is small in scale at 898.7 KB, indicating limited scope.
