The file “Raw data.csv” contains all data used for the analyses of the
article “The effects of four decades of climate change on the breeding
ecology of an avian sentinel species across a 1500-km latitudinal gradient
are stronger at high latitudes” (DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7459). This data was
used to investigate the effect of climate warming on the breeding time and
breeding success of European pied flycatchers breeding in Sweden during
1982-2017. The data set contains 29035 nest records and each row has
information per nest on ringing date of nestlings, developmental stage of
nestlings and estimates of hatching date, nestling age, and breeding
success (measured as number of ringed chicks). It also contains
geographical coordinates per nest and distance to the coast variables as
well as environmental data for different biweekly periods before and up to
ringing time (average and minimum temperature, precipitation and a
measurement of vegetation greenness). The precise definition of all the
variables can be found in the ReadMe file. The specific information on
data collection, processing and statistical analyses is available in the
corresponding article.
The data presented in the file “Raw data.csv” is the data used for the
analyses of the article “The effects of four decades of climate change on
the breeding ecology of an avian sentinel species across a 1500-km
latitudinal gradient are stronger at high latitudes”. Details on the
variable names found on “Raw data.csv” Note: Every row gives information
on a pied flycatcher nest. More details in “Methods” section and Fig. 3
(for the understanding of the periods analysed) of the corresponding
article. Ring.date: Ringing date of pied flycatcher nestlings Longitude:
Longitude in decimal degrees Latitude: Latitude in decimal degrees LocID:
Or “location ID” is a categorical variable that gives information on the
geographical location of the pied flycatcher nest boxes and it is created
by the unique combinations of longitude and latitude coordinates of each
nest boxes Ring.chicks: Number of ringed chicks per nest Develp.stage:
Developmental stage of the chicks per nest Hatch.date: Estimated hatching
date of chicks Chick.age: Estimated chick age in days Dist.m.coast:
Distance from the nest to the nearest coast in meters Dist.band.3:
Distance to the coast transformed into a categorical variable with three
levels (level 1 = closest to the coast; level 2 = intermediate; level 3 =
most inland level) Dist.band.2: Distance to the coast transformed into a
categorical variable with two levels (only used at southern latitudinal
band where there were very few nests at distance level 3 of above
variable) Latband: Categorical variable with three levels (southern,
intermediate and northern) Measurements of Normalized Difference
Vegetation Index (NDVI; scale: 1 – 10000): Hatch.ndvi: NDVI at the
hatching period that corresponds to the biweekly period covering mean
hatching date, at the first or second half of the month Ring.ndvi: NDVI at
ringing period corresponding to the biweekly period 15 days after mean
hatching date Pr.15.ndvi: NDVI corresponding to the biweekly period 15
days before mean hatching date Pr.30.ndvi: NDVI corresponding to the
biweekly period 30 days before mean hatching date Pr.45.ndvi: NDVI
corresponding to the biweekly period 45 days before mean hatching date
Temperature measurements in Kelvin: Hatch.t2: Average temperature at
2-meter height above the surface at the hatching period that corresponds
to the biweekly period covering mean hatching date, at the first or second
half of the month Ring.t2: Average temperature at 2-meter height above the
surface at ringing period corresponding to the biweekly period 15 days
after mean hatching date Pr.15.t2: Average temperature at 2-meter height
above the surface corresponding to the biweekly period 15 days before mean
hatching date Pr.30.t2 Average temperature at 2-meter height above the
surface corresponding to the biweekly period 30 days before mean hatching
date Pr.45.t2 : Average temperature at 2-meter height above the surface
corresponding to the biweekly period 45 days before mean hatching date
Hatch.mint: Average minimum temperature at 2-meter height above the
surface at the hatching period that corresponds to the biweekly period
covering mean hatching date, at the first or second half of the month
Ring.mint: Average minimum temperature at 2-meter height above the surface
at ringing period corresponding to the biweekly period 15 days after mean
hatching date Pr.15.mint: Average minimum temperature at 2-meter height
above the surface corresponding to the biweekly period 15 days before mean
hatching date Pr.30.mint: Average minimum temperature at 2-meter height
above the surface corresponding to the biweekly period 30 days before mean
hatching date Pr.45.mint: Average minimum temperature at 2-meter
height above the surface corresponding to the biweekly period 45 days
before mean hatching date Precipitation measurements in kg/m2: Hatch.rain:
Accumulated total precipitation at the hatching period that corresponds to
the biweekly period covering mean hatching date, at the first or second
half of the month Ring.rain: Accumulated total precipitation at ringing
period corresponding to the biweekly period 15 days after mean hatching
date Pr.15.rain: Accumulated total precipitation corresponding to the
biweekly period 15 days before mean hatching date Pr.30.rain: Accumulated
total precipitation corresponding to the biweekly period 30 days before
mean hatching date Pr.45.rain: Accumulated total precipitation
corresponding to the biweekly period 45 days before mean hatching date
