Data & Code


In the Smith lab, we encourage the publication of all data used in our work. Below are some of the datasets associated with past publications. Please contact Nick if you have trouble finding or accessing a particular dataset.

**The most up-to-date code and dataset releases from the lab can be found at the SmithEcophysLab page on GitHub.**
