This chapter discusses the importance of documenting the flow of analyses in ecological research. It provides a structured approach to organizing data through flowcharts and analysis logs. The example flowchart in Figure 8.2 illustrates a formalized method where data files are represented by boxes, while products or goals are denoted with exclamation points. Figure 8.3 presents an example of an analysis log, emphasizing the necessity of clear documentation for effective communication and reproducibility in ecological studies.
