EXERCISE 1 – [R] code (recreate the Chelo maps)

EXERCISE 2 – [R]: Using this example from Liolaemus, compute
extinction risk for each species. For those species without Tb, assume
their Tb is the average of the known species. What is the probability of
extinction of each species in the year 2080 assuming that the months of
reproduction are simply Nov-Jan (three months).
You must derive the h_r_critical for each species
and compute extinction risk for each separately. Use the h_r
equation from Sinervo et al. 2010 for Liolaemus.

TECHNIQUE File: For a data file with many
replicated sites, this is an xls macro that
computes the nearest neighbor distances.
Species.ExamplesPRE-Sort.xls,
with the following STEPS:
1) Sort by species, Lat, Lon
2) Copy the first >1km column that is updated dynamically and paste
it into the second column >1km, USE Paste Special VALUES
3) Now sort on the second column, delete all the values with 1 and
leave the values with 0
4) You now have a file with duplicate values in a Ò1kmÓ distance
summarized by a single value
EXERCISE 3 – Compute h_restriction
and h_activity using xls
equations =IF(Te model
>29.1,1,0) to compute h_restriction and
=IF(Te model > 20, 1, 0) to compute h_activity

EXERCISE 4 – Temperature Sensitivity of Performance
Compute the instantaneous performance of Anolis in each environment over the course of the 24-h
day at PtaSalinas using the non-linear equation
in CurveFitting, below.
