A longitudinal study of metropolitan density patterns in a developing country: Puerto Rico, 1899 - 1970

One approach to the study of the growth and development ofhuman settlements is through the analysis of changing residential patterns. The focus of this paper is upon the changing density patterns for Puerto Rico's three principal metropolitan areas from 1899 - 1970. The data show that San Juan's long-run residential deconcentration is consistent with the pattern usually displayed by cities in developed societies. The increasing congestion and stable concentration of Ponce and Mayaguez are consistent with the pattern found in cities in developing societies. Differences among the metropolitan areas are discussed in terms of the trajectory of Puerto Rico's economic development.

Offspring Microsatellite Genotypes and Morphometrics

Genotypes (14 microsatellite loci) and morphological measurements (SVL and mass) of hatchling C. nubila caymanensis sampled on Little Cayman. Clutch identity is specified

Candidate Adult Microsatellite Genotypes and Morphometrics

Genotypes (14 microsatellite loci) and morphological measurements (SVL, mass, and head measurements) of candidate adult C. nubila caymanensis sampled on Little Cayman. Sex and identities of clutches dammed/sired are specified

F and MLH Estimaes of Hatchlings

Two estimators of inbreeding coefficient (F) and three estimators of multi-locus heterozygosity (MLH) - standardized heterozygosity (SH), internal relatedness (IR) and homozygosity by locus (HL) - calculated from the genotypes of all hatchlings using COANCESTRY and the R package, 'Rhh,' respectively

F and MLH Estimates Adult Candidates

Two estimators of inbreeding coefficient (F) and three estimators of multi-locus heterozygosity (MLH) - standardized heterozygosity (SH), internal relatedness (IR) and homozygosity by locus (HL) - calculated from the genotypes of all adult candidates using COANCESTRY and the R package, 'Rhh,' respectively
