Introduction to data management and eco-evo process modeling for multidimensional biodiversity data

Shotgun metagenomics can be used for taxonomic and functional studies.

Metabarcoding can be used for taxonomic studies.

Collecting metadata beforehand is fundamental for downstream analysis.

We will use data from a Cuatro Ciénegas project to learn about shotgun metagenomics.

Quality encodings vary across sequencing platforms.

for loops let you perform the same set of operations on multiple files with a single command.

It is important to know the quality of our data to be able to make decisions in the subsequent steps.
