Nest shape influences colony organization in ants: spatial distribution and connectedness of colony members differs from that predicted by random movement and is affected by nest space
<p><strong>Overview</strong></p> <p>Data used for the manuscript: Nest shape influences colony organization in ants: spatial distribution and connectedness of colony members differs from that predicted by random movement and is affected by available space</p> <p><strong>Purpose of the study</strong></p> <p>Investigating how nest shape influences how <em>Temnothorax rugatulus</em> colonies spatially organize in their nests. This includes physical location of colony members and their distances from the entrance, mobile colony member distance to the brood center, worker distance to the physical center of the nest, and comparing worker distributions with those predicted by a random walk model.</p> <p><strong>Structure of the data</strong></p> <p>EMPIRICAL DATA</p> <p>WORKERS: FullDataCoordWorkers.csv,
