• Data for bioclimatic envelope model

  This spreadsheet provides the data used to calibrate and evaluate the bioclimatic envelope models (SDMs) for our 16 target tree species. For copyright reasons the geographic coordinates of the points have been removed and only relevant information in the environmental space is provided.

• Bioclimatic predictors used for future projections

  The seven bioclimatic predictors (mean annual temperature, minimum temperature of the coldest month, temperature of the driest quarter, annual sum of precipitation, sum of precipitation of the driest quarter, slope and topographic position (concave-convex) used for correlative SDMs in Scherrer et al. 2020. Data for climate is available for both current (1981-2010) and future (2020-49, 2045-74,2070-99).

• Bioclimatic data for TreeMig

  Bioclimatic input data used for the TreeMig models in Scherrer et al. 2020. Data spans the whole simulation period of 1500 until 2500 and covers three different climate change scenarios.
