This reproducible R Markdown analysis was created with workflowr (version 1.6.2). The Checks tab describes the reproducibility checks that were applied when the results were created. The Past versions tab lists the development history.
Great! Since the R Markdown file has been committed to the Git repository, you know the exact version of the code that produced these results.
Great job! The global environment was empty. Objects defined in the global environment can affect the analysis in your R Markdown file in unknown ways. For reproduciblity it’s best to always run the code in an empty environment.
The command set.seed(20210216) was run prior to running the code in the R Markdown file. Setting a seed ensures that any results that rely on randomness, e.g. subsampling or permutations, are reproducible.
Great job! Recording the operating system, R version, and package versions is critical for reproducibility.
Nice! There were no cached chunks for this analysis, so you can be confident that you successfully produced the results during this run.
Great job! Using relative paths to the files within your workflowr project makes it easier to run your code on other machines.
Great! You are using Git for version control. Tracking code development and connecting the code version to the results is critical for reproducibility.
The results in this page were generated with repository version 19eac79. See the Past versions tab to see a history of the changes made to the R Markdown and HTML files.
Note that you need to be careful to ensure that all relevant files for the analysis have been committed to Git prior to generating the results (you can use wflow_publish or wflow_git_commit). workflowr only checks the R Markdown file, but you know if there are other scripts or data files that it depends on. Below is the status of the Git repository when the results were generated:
Ignored files:
Ignored: .Rproj.user/
Unstaged changes:
Modified: analysis/_site.yml
Modified: code/functions.R
Note that any generated files, e.g. HTML, png, CSS, etc., are not included in this status report because it is ok for generated content to have uncommitted changes.
These are the previous versions of the repository in which changes were made to the R Markdown (analysis/metadatabase.Rmd) and HTML (docs/metadatabase.html) files. If you’ve configured a remote Git repository (see ?wflow_git_remote), click on the hyperlinks in the table below to view the files as they were in that past version.

Overview
This document is designed to satisfy D1.2 for the Horizon2020 project FACE-IT. The interactive tables contain the meta-database for the data that contain variables identified as key drivers of change (D1.1). The meta-data from this document will be used for the completion of a review article on past and future changes of key drivers in and around the FACE-IT study sites (D1.3). The meta-database has been broken up into the different sites for convenience, with a table of meta-data given for the relevant data per site. This means that some meta-data will be repeated in the tables below as some data files are relevant to multiple sites. The following table is a condensed recap of the drivers identified for D1.1.
European Arctic
The decline in the floating sea ice cover in the Arctic is one of the most striking manifestations of climate change.
(Stroeve and Notz, 2018)
This section contains meta-data for pan-Arctic data files. These are almost exclusivley large gridded data sets or large combined sets of CTD data.
Svalbard
While not a study site itself, there are a lot of studies and data products that focus on Svalbard broadly, rather than individual study sites within this region. Therefore this geographical region has it’s own meta-data table. The primary drivers of change for each site are still listed in their own tables below.
| Category | Driver | Why | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Biological | Seabirds | Changes in top down predation can affect most trophic levels |

| Social | Ship traffic | Indicative of direct anthropogenic disturbance. |
Isfjorden
| Category | Driver | Why | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cryosphere | Fast ice cover | Decreasing (fast) ice cover can have a range of ecological effect. | Muckenhuber et al. (2016) |
| Physical | Atlantic water inflow | Increases the temperature and salinity of fjord waters. | Skogseth et al. (2020) |
| Physical | Freshwater runoff | Changes the temperature, salinity, and turbidity of surface waters. | Vereide (2019); Mcgovern et al. (2020) |
| Physical | Wind stress | Responsible for increasing Atlantic water inflow from the West Spitsbergen Current. | Pavlov et al. (2013) |
| Chemistry | Nutrient input | Can tip ecological balances by inordinately favouring some species over others. | Mcgovern et al. (2020) |
| Biological | Microbial communtiy | Affects the decomposition of material. | Delpech et al. (2021) |
| Biological | Zooplankton community | Foundational prey species for many pelagics. | Vereide (2019) |
| Biological | Benthic community | Contribute to biogeochemical processes; re-mineralise nutrients; food for higher trophic levels. | Ugelstad (2019) |
| Social | Fish landings | Alters top down trophic pressure. | |
| Social | Tourism arrivals | Increases to a range of pollutants from light to chemical. |
NB: This is just a place holder until Isfjorden data are added.
