This record contains the R code and bibliographic data used in the publication 'Reciprocal knowledge exchange between climate-driven species redistribution and invasion ecology' (doi:10.21425/F5FBG60804). The aim of this study was to examine the current degree of cross-fertilisation between range shift ecology and invasion ecology, as a first step in determining the level of need for increasing connection between the two fields. To that end, here we examine (1) the structure and degree of similarity of themes explored within range shift and invasion ecology publications, (2) the extent that range shift and invasion publications draw on a common pool of research, and (3) the extent that range shift and invasion publications directly cite publications from the other field of study. This dataset includes: 1) R code used in the litsearchr package to generate a semi-automated search string, 2) publication data used for bibliographic analysis, and 3) R code used with the bibliometrix package for keyword co-occurrence analysis.

This data set consists of a scored time-series of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) images from the Bicheno region on the east coast of Tasmania. Surveys were conducted between 2011 and 2016 within the Governor Island Marine Reserve and nearby sites outside the reserve. Governor Island was surveyed in 2011, 2013, 2014 and 2016. The outside sites of Trap Reef, Cape Lodi and Butlers Point were surveyed in 2011, 2013 and 2016. Imagery across all surveys was scored for the presence of Centrostephanus rodgersii urchin barrens across rocky reef at each site. Prior to analysis the data was subsetted to every fifth image to avoid overlapping images. The data set also contains depth information for each image and a measure of rugosity (Vector Rugosity Measure) computed in ArcGIS software from a one metre resolution bathymetric map covering the survey sites. Analysis was conducted to examine the trend in the presence of barrens through time and to compare the occurrence of barrens inside the Governor Island Marine Reserve with sites outside the reserve. A spatio-temporal model incorporating both spatial and temporal correlation in the time-series of data was used. This data set contains the scored data used in the analysis. Further details of the methods used and results are contained in the following article.
