Rscript install_dependencies.r
Note for mac users: this may fail if pg_config is not in your path. If so, you need to install psql first. This is easiest with macports:
sudo port install postgresql93
sudo ln -s /opt/local/lib/postgresql93/bin/* /opt/local/bin
Rscript install_dependencies.r
make -j all
If you want to get the data and you are not at UQAR or connected by wired, please follow this procedure:
- Modify
con_quicc_db.r
to:
require("RPostgreSQL")
dbname <- "db_quicc_for"
dbhost <- "127.0.0.1"
dbport <- 55432
-
Open the VPN tunnel:
- Open the web page: https://eduvpn.uqar.ca.
- Login with your UQAR account (e.g. viss0001 is my username)
- Click on the icon «BD PostgreSQL SRBD04».
- The tunnel to the QUICCFOR DB is open.
-
Run
make -j all
Get only tree data: make treeData
Get only climatic data: make climData
Get only plot info data: make plotInfoData
Get only STM past-climate grid input (1970-2000): make STMClimate_grid
Use to run STM on the past-climate
Get only SDM past-climate grid input (1970-2000): make SDMClimate_grid
Used to project SDM
Retrieve shapefile of the study area (Lakes and boundaries): make SHP_area
The reshape script comes in two parts, the first, reshape/reshapeStates.r
computes the
states, and the second, reshape/reshapeTransitions.r
computes transitions between
states. In general, use the makefile, either with make -j all
or make -j reshape
to
run the scripts (which will use default options). The most important option, setting the
threshold basal area for the R state, can be changed by editing the variable at the
beginning of the makefile. To see other options and change them, run the scripts using
Rscript. Start with:
Rscript reshape/reshapeStates.r --help
Rscript reshape/reshapeTransitions.r --help
to get information on the options. There is an additional script,
reshape/reshapeClimTest.r
, that does some testing. See its help for more information.
Finally, note that the file reshape/tmpStateData_r$N.rdata
, where $N
is the cutoff
for the R state, is a temporary file that should not be used. The correct output file,
assuming default options, is out_files/transitions_r$N.rdata
.
Defaults:
- threshold basal area for determining the R state: 1 (change in makefile or with -r option)
- climate variables for transitions: annual mean temperature, annual precipitation
- output file: transitions_r1.rdata, where the number will be the r threshold
A rough outline of what the script does:
- Read coarse data from the treeData.csv, plotInfoData.csv, and climData.csv files produced by the sql queries.
- Collapse the tree data into a single state for each year sampled in each plot, using species lists specified in the script.
- Merge the collapsed data with the plotInfoData (to get lat/long)
- Merge this with the climate data into stateData. This is a dataframe with one row for each unique plot-year combination. This will output warnings if there are missing records in the climate or state data; do not ignore these warnings!
- Output some basic summary statistics on the states
- reshapes the sample data into a transition data frame, containing columns for the measurement years, the states, and the mean of the 2 climate variables
- drop all rows from both the transition and state objects containing a U state
- scale the climate variables in the transition data frame
- print the transition table to the console
- save the state and the transition objects, and the transformation for the climate variables, into a single .rdata file
