Probability and uncertainty maps showing the potential and realized distribution for 16 forest tree species for Europe.
The following species have been modeled:
- Silver fir (Abies alba Mill.)
- Sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill.)
- Common hazel (Corylus avellana L.),
- European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.),
- Olive tree (Olea europaea L.),
- Norway spruce (Picea abies L. H. Karst.),
- Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis Mill.),
- Austrian pine (Pinus nigra J. F. Arnold),
- Stone pine (Pinus pinea L.),
- Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.),
- Sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.),
- Turkey oak (Quercus cerris L.),
- Holm oak (Quercus ilex L.),
- Common oak (Quercus robur L.),
- Cork oak (Quercus suber L.),
- Goat willow (Salix caprea L.).
Files are named according to the following naming convention, e.g:
- veg_abies.alba_anv.eml_md_30m_0..0cm_2000..2002_eumap_epsg3035_v0.2
with the following fields:
- theme: e.g. veg,
- species code: e.g. abies.alba,
- species distribution type: e.g. anv (= actual natural vegetation),
- species estimation method: e.g. eml,
- species estimation type: e.g. md ( = model deviation),
- resolution in meters e.g. 30m,
- reference depths (vertical dimension): e.g. 0..0cm,
- reference period begin end: e.g. 2000..2002,
- reference area: e.g. eumap,
- coordinate system: e.g. epsg3035,
- data set version: e.g. v0.2.
For each species is then easy to identify probability and uncertainty distribution maps:
- veg_abies.alba_anv.eml_md: model uncertainty for realized distribution
- veg_abies.alba_anv.eml_p: probability for realized distribution
- veg_abies.alba_pnv.eml_md: model uncertainty for potential distribution
- veg_abies.alba_pnv.eml_p: probability for potential distribution
