Rshiny_ButterflyMuseumSpecimens

ButterflyMuseumSpecimens is an interactive shiny app that allows any user to visualize the relationship between temperature and butterflies' morphology and physiology taken from museum specimens. The app aims to picture what impact climate change can have on butterflies. The data were gathered by Maclean et al. in 2018.
