Input data for analyses described in:
Stevenson, S. L., Woolley, S. N., Barnett, J., & Dunstan, P. K. (2019). Testing the presence of marine protected areas against their ability to reduce pressures on biodiversity. Conservation Biology.
This is an .rda data object that can be loaded into R or R Studio.
This is the large dataframe created by integrating human pressure values (Halpern et al. 2015) with marine protected area (MPA) locations (UNEP-WCMC, 2016). The rows are individual MPAs, the columns are mean value of different human pressures in that MPA.
It is not a final product but input for the analysis sections of the code published at:
https://github.com/Simonestevo/MPA_final
Raw pressure data obtained from Halpern et al (2015).
Raw MPA data obtained from the July 2016 version of the WDPA (UNEP-WCMC 2016).
