Data for: Ecological interactions mediate projected loss of kelp biomass under climate change

<p>This dataset contains the data used to define a stacked species distribution model (SDM) for kelp (<em>Ecklonia radiata</em>) and urchins (<em>Centrostephanus rodgersii</em>) in eastern Australia. The spatial extent of this study encompasses the eastern coast of Australia, between 28.0–37.5°S. Within this region, <em>E. radiata</em> is the only laminarian kelp species, while <em>C. rodgersii </em>is the dominant urchin species, with ecological interactions between these two species creating a patchwork of kelp forests and urchin barrens on shallow reefs.</p>
