• analysis.R The R script for generating figures and tables. For Figure 1, to output the inset ("blowup") of early stages, un-comment the viewport code and run the relevant code in console directly.
• clutchData.csv Dataset on Plethodon cinereus clutch encounters in Massachusetts
• climateData.csv Climate data
• environmentalAnalysis.R The R script for assessing the effects of precipitation and relative humidity on clutch size.
• staging_at_15C.csv Staging data for lab-reared clutches of P. cinereus

• R packages:
  • tidyverse
  • lubridate
  • ggplot2
  • grid
  • gridExtra

Each time you want to execute an analysis:

• Clone the repository, e.g., git clone https://github.com/zrlewis/clutches.git
• Navigate to the root of the repository, e.g., cd clutches.
• Run the code, e.g., launch R and run source("analysis.R").
• The figures and tables will be generated in your repository.
• The precipitation and relative humidity analyses can be replicated by running source("environmentalAnalysis.R") in R.
