Focal female locations 2015
This .zip archive contains a shapefile (including .shp, .shx, .dbf, and .prj components) that describes the locations of focal females used in 2015 in the study of the effect of neighborhood operational sex ratio on seed set rates in Valeriana edulis.
Operational sex ratio analyses (R script)
Analyses of Valeriana edulis operational sex ratios across the species' elevation range and over time (1978-2011).
Species range shifts in response to climate change
Data for meta-analysis of montane plant species range shifts in response to climate change.
Climate analyses (R script)
Analyses of climate change over elevation and time in the study area.
Mating function (R script)
Estimation of the mating function – how local operational sex ratio affects female reproductive success – of Valeriana edulis. This script includes a simulation of pollen limitation across a range of operational sex ratios.
Water use efficiency (R script)
Analysis of Valeriana edulis sex differences in integrated water use efficiency and population operational sex ratios.
Reproductive life expectancy (R script)
Analysis of sex differences in Valeriana edulis life expectancy upon reaching sexual maturity and population operational sex ratios.
Paces of species range shifts (R script)
Meta-analysis of montane plant species range shifts in response to climate change.

Supplement 1. Temperature and light data recorded at trap-nest sites, 2007–2010.
File List temp_data.txt light_data.txt Description Both files are tab-delimited text files. Temperatures (in degrees Celsius) were recorded in 2007–2008 using LogTag data-loggers, and in 2008–2010 using HOBO data-loggers. Light intensities (in lux) were recorded in 2008–2010 only, using HOBO data-lo

Data from: Leaf traits of African woody savanna species across climate and soil fertility gradients: evidence for conservative vs. acquisitive resource use strategies
1. Establishing trade-offs among traits and the degree to which they co-vary along environmental gradients has become a key focal point in the effort to develop community ecology into a predictive science. While there is evidence for these relationships across global datasets, they are often too bro
Data from: Relationships between resprouting ability, species traits, and resource allocation patterns in woody species in a temperate forest
Many woody plants resprout to restore above-ground biomass after disturbances or to survive in stressful environments. Resprouting requires carbohydrate storage, but the general relationship between resource allocation patterns and resprouting ability remains unclear because it can be influenced by
Data from: The oldest, slowest forests in the world? Exceptional biomass and slow carbon dynamics of Fitzroya cupressoides temperate rainforests in southern Chile
Old-growth temperate rainforests are, per unit area, the largest and most long-lived stores of carbon in the terrestrial biosphere, but their carbon dynamics have rarely been described. The endangered Fitzroya cupressoides forests of southern South America include stands that are probably the oldest
Data from: Relative impacts of environmental variation and evolutionary history on the nestedness and modularity of tree-herbivore networks.
Nestedness and modularity are measures of ecological networks whose causative effects are little understood. We analyzed antagonistic plant–herbivore bipartite networks using common gardens in two contrasting environments comprised of aspen trees with differing evolutionary histories of defence agai
Data from: High genetic variation and moderate to high values for genetic parameters of Picea abies resistance to Pissodes strobi
Genetic parameters of Picea abies resistance to the white pine weevil (Pissodes strobi Peck) were estimated from 193 full-sib and 166 half-sib families in six 10-year-old progeny trials. The estimated family and individual heritability values for the cumulative weevil attack rate between ages 6 and
Data from: Modelling short-rotation coppice and tree planting for urban carbon management – a city-wide analysis
1. The capacity of urban areas to deliver provisioning ecosystem services is commonly overlooked and underutilized. Urban populations have globally increased fivefold since 1950, and they disproportionately consume ecosystem services and contribute to carbon emissions, highlighting the need to incre
