Fig. S5. Hourly atmospheric temperature and hourly maximum
photosynthetically active radiation (PARmax) records collected since
October 2012 at a weather station on Calvert Island. Black line shows
the seasonal trends, and color of data points represent anomalies from
the seasonal trend. The weather station is located above Foggy Cove at
63m above sea-level at the top of a nearby hill that is often above the
fog layer
Selection of taxa: Because we were interested in modelling
species abundance as a function of year, we could only include species
that occurred fairly regularly. The rarest taxa were not included in the
joint species distribution modeling with HMSC. We could have included
those species, but we would have had far less certainty about
distributional patterns in any one year, as well as patterns across
years. Therefore, we set an arbitrary threshold that species must have
occurred in at least 48 plots throughout the entire time series, which
equates to an average of 6 quadrats per year. This threshold left a
minimum of XX observations in any year and a minimum of XX percent cover
in any year.
