Ornithology Exchange (brought to you by the Ornithological Council)

About This Group

This group is dedicated to sharing knowledge and helping others in using R for Ornithology Research. We are an inclusive community built to help Ornithologists learn, teach, build, and troubleshoot in R across a broad range of experience levels. Please read our code of conduct (under General Topics) before posting.
  1. What's new in this group
  2. Thanks! This is still a work in progress, and I included all of the packages suggested here. This is an example of the reference that I'm building (see Cran task views for comparison) https://beausoleilmo.github.io/Ornithometrics-ctv/Ornithometrics.html
  3. For acoustic data I use Seewave warbleR tuneR I also recommend Sound Analysis and Synthesis With R by Jerome Sueur
  4. Thanks! Well, if you are interested, I'm actually building a Cran task View (or maybe just a Task view) for ornithologists. If anyone wants to join, we can discuss on how to move forward :D
  5. For regression models I regularly use emmeans/emtrends: https://aosmith.rbind.io/2019/03/25/getting-started-with-emmeans/ visreg: https://pbreheny.github.io/visreg/ rr2 to plot partial residual plots, calculate model coefficients and effect sizes, and extract pseudo R-squared values for anything that is not least squares. This is especially useful for regression models with lots of variables, especially multiple categorical variables and/or interactions.
  6. Some population related packages: Distance dsm marked mrds nimbleSCR oSCR PresenceAbsence Rcapture RMark scrbook secr unmarked Some packages for accessing bird observation citizen science data: auk (and ebirdst) rinat rgbif Lots of general modeling packages: MuMIn AICcmodavg You might also check out some of the CRAN task views such as, Analysis of Ecological and Environmental Data Analysis of Spatial Data Multivariate Statistics Phylogenetics, Especially Comparative Methods Cluster Analysis & Finite Mixture Models Handling and Analyzing Spatio-Temporal Data
  7. I'm compiling a list of relevant R packages in ornithology. I was wondering if you can provide one or more packages that you find relevant in these categories. Communication and acoustic analysis Conservation Genetics Mark-recapture analysis Movement ecology, navigation, telemetry, GPS, habitat use Phylogeny Physiology, phenology and life histories Population dynamics I welcome packages not only on CRAN. Thanks!
  8. Hi All, This is likely to become the largest tab within R Onithology. Here is where you can post on most any topic, but we request you use tags to help other users sort through the posts and find things of interest. Possible tags could include bioacoustics, power analysis, distance sampling, radar, modeling, and many many others. Feel free to start new tags of your own!
  9. Currently this is an open forum to discuss what other points we might need to address and add to our code of conduct. Feel free to discuss any changes.
  10. Please read. Youre continued use of this forum is an implicit agreement to adhere to the Code of Conduct. Rnithology is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone. We do not tolerate harassment of participants in any form. This code of conduct applies to all Rnithology spaces, including meetups, Twitter, mailing lists, both online and offline. Anyone who violates this code of conduct may be sanctioned or expelled from these spaces at the discretion of the Leadership Team. Some Rnithology spaces may have additional rules in place, which will be made clearly available to participants. Participants are responsible for knowing and abiding by these rules. Harassment includes: Offensive comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, mental illness, neuro(a)typicality, physical appearance, body size, age, race, or religion. Unwelcome comments regarding a person's lifestyle choices and practices, including those related to food, health, parenting, drugs, and employment. Deliberate misgendering or use of 'dead' or rejected names. Gratuitous or off-topic sexual images or behaviour in spaces where they're not appropriate. Threats of violence. Incitement of violence towards any individual, including encouraging a person to commit suicide or to engage in self-harm. Deliberate intimidation. Stalking or following. Harassing photography or recording, including logging online activity for harassment purposes. Sustained disruption of discussion. Unwelcome sexual attention. Continued one-on-one communication after requests to cease. Deliberate "outing" of any aspect of a person's identity without their consent except as necessary to protect vulnerable people from intentional abuse. Publication of non-harassing private communication. Rnithology prioritizes marginalized people's safety over privileged people's comfort. The Leadership Team will not act on complaints regarding: 'Reverse' -isms, including 'reverse racism,' 'reverse sexism,' and 'cisphobia'. Reasonable communication of boundaries, such as "leave me alone," "go away," or "I'm not discussing this with you." Communicating in a 'tone' you don't find congenial. Criticizing racist, sexist, cissexist, or otherwise oppressive behavior or assumptions. Reporting If you are being harassed by a member/guest/participant of/at Rnithology, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please contact the Leadership Team via EMAIL ADDRESS. Local incidences will be handled together with the local organisers. If the person who is harassing you is on the team, they will recuse themselves from handling your incident. We will respond as promptly as we can. We will take all good-faith reports of harassment by Rnithology members seriously. This includes harassment outside our spaces and harassment that took place at any point in time. In order to protect volunteers from abuse and burnout, we reserve the right to reject any report we believe to have been made in bad faith. Reports intended to silence legitimate criticism may be deleted without response. We will respect confidentiality requests for the purpose of protecting victims of abuse. At our discretion, we may publicly name a person about whom we've received harassment complaints, or privately warn third parties about them, if we believe that doing so will increase the safety of Rnithology members or the general public. We will not name harassment victims without their affirmative consent. Consequences Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately. If a participant engages in harassing behavior, the Leadership Team may take any action they deem appropriate, up to and including expulsion from all Rnithology spaces and identification of the participant as a harasser to other Rrnithology members or the general public.
