Alien species first records, prepared for relational event models

First records of established alien species (mammals, birds, plants, insects) in 272 regions, 1880–2005, as one-shot species-to-region events: each pair fires at most once (risk = "remove"). The first record is dated stop; start is the start of the last interval over which the pair was at risk with unchanged covariates in the counting-process release.

Usage

alien_invasions

Format

A data frame with 11,730 rows, ordered by stop: species, region, start, stop (years; equal when the record falls in the first year, 1880), taxonomy.
