Predictor variables relate to the community diversity and averages of the data available for the energy and resources in the environment and the habitat conditions in the grid cells. See manuscript for details on data sourcing and units on environmental variables. see Dalrymple et al 2015 Birds, butterflies and flowers in the tropics are not more colourful than those at higher latitudes.
