Description

The R code contained in the files InundationTotal.R, InundationRowcrops.R, InundationNonRowcrops.R was used to develop and validate generalized linear mixed models of total, rowcrop-embedded, and non-rowcrop-embedded wetland inundation (i.e., presence/absence of water) in the years 2004 and 2006–2009. These final three models were then used in tandem with the following files to make predictions concerning wetland inundation in the year 2050 under two scenarios of plausible climatic change: InundationTotalModestChangeScenario.R, InundationTotalExtemeChangeScenario.R, InundationRowcropsModestChangeScenario.R, InundationRowcropsExtremeChangeScenario.R, InundationNonRowcropsModestChangeScenario.R, and InundationNonRowcropsExtremeChangeScenario.R.

The R code contained in the files PondedAreaTotal.R, PondedAreaRowcrops.R, PondedAreaNonRowcrops.R was used to develop and validate linear mixed models of total, rowcrop-embedded, and non-rowcrop-embedded wetland ponded area (i.e., extent of water) in wetlands that were inundated in the years 2004 and 2006–2009. These final three models were then used in tandem with the following files to make predictions concerning wetland ponded area in the year 2050 under two scenarios of plausible climatic change: PondedAreaTotalModestChangeScenario.R, PondedAreaTotalExtemeChangeScenario.R, PondedAreaRowcropsModestChangeScenario.R, PondedAreaRowcropsExtremeChangeScenario.R, PondedAreaNonRowcropsModestChangeScenario.R, and PondedAreaNonRowcropsExtremeChangeScenario.R. In order to generate intermediary .csv files necessary for carrying out the analyses, the scripts should be run in the order they occur in the file list above.
