The titles and abstracts of these studies were screened and assessed to determine whether they fell within the scope of this review.The relevant studies were filtered and transferred to another sheet ("Filtered_studies") within the same Excel spreadsheet. After a full review of these papers, the studies were filtered again. Those that met the scope criteria of our review were placed on the "Final_studies" sheet.Additionally, a legend was created to inform readers about the inclusion and exclusion criteria for the studies ("Legend"). The name of each column indicates the variable of interest obtained from the studies, except for the "ID" column, which was created to identify each study.<br><br>Details for Metadata in tab "Data - Kirsch et al., 2024.xlsx"---------------------------------------<br>* Description: A compilation of data extracted from the 43 studies included in this review, used to perform the descriptive analyses. In the "Descriptive Analysis 1" sheet, the description was made per statistical or non-statistical evaluations (n=470 lines);in the "Descriptive Analysis 2" sheet, the description is made by study (n=43 lines); in the "Coordinates" sheet, details about the geographical localization of each study are presented; in the "Response variable" and "Ash Source" sheets, the percentage of negative, positive, and non-significant results per response variable and ash source, respectively, are shown.In the "GLMM-FULL" sheet, all the data used in the models tested in our paper are presented. Sheets named "GLMM-1 Bio-TC-PE," "GLMM-2 Bi," and "GLMM-3 Met-TC-PE" are subsets from the "GLMM-FULL" sheet filtered by sampling method. Lastly, the results of the models constructed are also included in this Excel spreadsheet ("Table 2").The name of each column indicates the variable of interest obtained from the studies, except for the "ID" column, which was created to identify each study.<br><br>Details for Metadata in tab "Species_data.xlsx"---------------------------------------<br>* Description: Data about the fish species or fish community included in the reviewed studies.The table is divided into two sheets: one for descriptive analyses related to species occurrence among the studies ("Descriptive") and one for phylogenetic signal analysis ("Phylogenetic").The name of each column indicates the variable of interest obtained from the studies, except for the columns "N," "N_total," "N_pos," "N_neg," and "N_nsig," which were created to number and classify the evaluations made by each study among the species.<br>For more detailed data analysis, please read the full version of the manuscript Kirsch et al.
