Hi!
I used MaxEnt to carry out SDM for 16 species across 26 environmental variables. I did 10 replicates for most species and more replicates for some due to the small sample size. To show my results I basically replicated the plots that MaxEnt makes, using the text files to draw the response curves, but with no confidence intervals so my figure wouldn't be too overcrowded. Now I want to make the same figures but with the confidence intervals to put in the appendix, but I can't find the data to draw the confidence intervals. Is it possible to obtain this data somehow, or do I have to calculate the confidence intervals myself if I want to make my own figures? Has anyone been in the same situation before?
Thank you :)
Dear Agate Baumane ,
one approach is to open the generated HTML file (the one just under the plot archive) if you are interested in obtaining the standard deviation value of your 10 replicates. Or open the so-called maxentResults notebook file (the last csv file), you will find there a bunche of metrics for each replicate. Just open (or imported) it in Excel or R and enjoy :-)
In case anyone has the same issue, I wanted to share how I resolved it in the end.
Outammassine Abdelkrim thank you for the input, but unfortunately your answer was not what I was looking for - I was referring specifically to the standard deviation for individual parameters rather than the whole replicate.
So I did what I suspected I'd have to do at the start - I used the individual replicates' data (for me the file names went like "species_modelnumber_parameter_only.dat"), put them all together (for each species and each parameter) so I could calculate the standard deviation myself, and then was able to plot it. It worked out great, though it was a fair bit of code to go through.
