Subspecies and Distribution. S. s. scrofa Linnaeus, 1758 — W Europe, from Denmark, Germany, Poland, and Czech Republic to N Italy and N Iberian Peninsula; possibly also Albania. The taxonomic status of animals in Austria, Switzerland, Slovenia, and Slovakia is unclear but presumably these populations are included in scrofa, as are the populations of Sweden, Finland, and the Baltic states. However, restocking of once depleted populations, for example in Italy, has likely involved the introduction and mixing of this subspecies with other subspecies, such as attila. S. s. affinis Gray, 1847 — S India and Sri Lanka. S. s. algirus Loche, 1867 — Tunisia, Algeria, and Morocco, on the coastal side of the mountains or in the low montane areas. S. s. attila Thomas, 1912 — Hungary, Ukraine, C & S Belarus, Romania, Moldova, and S Russia towards the N flank of the Caucasus, but not including the Transcaucasian countries of Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan. The range possibly extends as far S as the Mesopotamian Delta in Iraq, in which case it would likely include W & SW Iran, and possibly E Turkey and Syria, where it borders with lybicus. Such a range could not be easily reconciled with a statement by Groves that "the difference between pigs from N and S of the Caucasus is quite striking; Transcaucasian boars are certainly not attila." This subspecies may also extend into C Asia and include Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan, but no data exist to support this. S. s. baeticus Thomas, 1912 — originally described from Coto Donana, S Spain, and later merged with meridionalis; also S Portugal. Unless evidence is found that these Italian and Iberian populations are the relics of a much larger formerly contiguous range, this subspecies should be kept as distinct. S. s. coreanus Heude, 1897 — Korean Peninsula. S. s. eristatus Wagner, 1839 — Himalayas S to C India and E to Indochina (N of the Kra Isthmus). S. s. davidi Groves, 1981 — the arid zone from E Iran to Gujarat, including Pakistan and NW India, and perhaps N to Tajikistan. S. s. leucomystax Temminck, 1842 — main Is ofJapan (Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu, Nakadori, Hiburijima, Tojima, Kushima, and other smaller Is). S. s. lybicus Gray, 1868 — Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Israel, Palestine, in the past also in Lybia, and Egypt. The former Yugoslavia was included in its range, which would suggest that now Slovenia, Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, and Kosovo are within the range of this subspecies, although the exact boundaries are unclear. Pigs from Albania have been assigned to S. s. scrofa. S. s. majori De Beaux & Festa, 1927 — C & S Italian Peninsula. S. s. menidionalis Forsyth Major, 1882 — Corsica and Sardinia, with the proviso that the two populations are very likely to be introduced or feral. S. s. moupinensis Milne-Edwards, 1871 — China, S to Vietnam and W to Sichuan. S. s. nigripes Blanford, 1875 — the flanks of the Tianshan mountains in Kyrgyzstan and NW China (Xinjiang). An animal photographed in NE Iran (Golestan) looked like this subspecies. S. s. nukiuanus Kuroda, 1924 — Iriomote, Ishigaki, Okinawa, Tokunoshima, Amamioshima, and Kakerome Is in the Ryukyu chain in extreme S Japan, though some of these populations have hybridized with introduced domesticates. S. s. sibiricus Staffe, 1922 — Mongolia and Transbaikal (S & E of Lake Baikal). S. s. tawvanus Swinhoe, 1863 — Taiwan. S. s. ussuricus Heude, 1888 — far E Russia and the Manchurian region (China). Korean populations were previously included in this subspecies, but based on new evidence, the Korean taxon seems more similar to moupinensis. S. s. vittatus Boie, 1828 — Malay Peninsula, S of the Isthmus of Kra, the offshore islands of Terutai and Langkawi, Sumatra, Riau Archipelago, Java, Bali, and a range of smaller islands around these, including Babi, Bakong, Batam, Bawean, Bengkalis, Bintan, Bulan, Bunguran, Cuyo, Deli, Durian, Enggano, Galang, Jambongan, Karimon (Riau Is), Kundur, Lagong, Laut, Lingga, Lingung, Mapor, Moro Kecil, North Pagai, Nias, Panaitan, Payong, Penang, Pinie, Rupat, Siantan, Siberut, Simeulue, Singkep, Sugi, Sugi Bawa, Telibon, Tinggi, Tuangku, and the Tambelan Is. This species was originally present from the British Is in the extreme W, through Eurasia from S Scandinavia to S Siberia, extending as far E as Korea and Japan, and SE into some of the Sunda Is and Taiwan. In the S the species ranged along the Nile Valley to Khartoum, and N of the Sahara in Africa, more orless following the continental coasts of S, E, and SE Asia. Within this range it was absent only from extremely dry deserts, e.g. the driest regions of Mongolia and in China W of Sichuan; and alpine zones, such as the high altitudes of Pamir and Tien Shan. In recent centuries, the range of S. scrofa has changed dramatically because of hunting and changes in available habitat. The species disappeared from the British Is in the 17" century, from Denmark in the 19" century, and was greatly reduced in range and numbers in the 20" century from areas as distant as Tunisia, Sudan, Germany, and Russia. Following these severe declines, there were some slight population recoveries in Russia, Italy, Spain, and Germany in the mid-20™ century, and natural and assisted range expansions in Denmark and Sweden. The species has also been inadvertently reintroduced in various locations in the Great Britain via escapees of mixed origin from commercial farming enterprises. Ex-S. scrofa stocks also occur as introduced feral populations in various other parts of the world, including Australia, New Zealand, the eastern Malay Archipelago, and in North, Central, and South America. In all of these areas they are now generally recognized as a major pest. in Suidae

Daily cloud-gap-filled Terra–Aqua MODIS NDSI dataset over High Mountain Asia (2000-2024)

<p>1. The daily cloud-gap-filled (CGF) MODIS normalized difference snow index (NDSI) dataset over High Mountain Asia (HMA) (2000-2024) is generated by combining of the cubic spline interpolation (CSI) method and the Spatio-Temporal Weighted (STW) method. This dataset is derived from daily 500 m MOD10A1 (Terra) and MYD10A1 (Aqua) products.</p> <p>2. The cloud persistence days (CPD) dataset is also provided. The CPD represents the number of consecutive days of cloud observed for a pixel from the last cloud-free observation to the next cloud-free observation. And the CPD is used to determine the combination of CSI and STW method, which is expressed as: when CPD &lt; 8 d, the CSI method is used; when CPD &ge; 8 d, the STW is used.</p> <p>3. The CGF MODIS NDSI dataset is provided in ENVI standard format (.img) and the CPD dataset is provided in Geotiff format. And they are all provided in a geographic projection using the WGS84 coordinate system at a 0.005&deg; (about 500 m) resolution. The NDSI value ranges from 0~100 and the CPD value ranges from 0~366. The fill value of both dataset is set to 255 (outside the track coverage of MODIS product).</p> <p>4. The CGF MODIS NDSI dataset contains 25 compressed packages (named after the normal year) of the daily CGF MODIS NDSI dataset over HMA (2000-2024), and after uncompressing the files are named as &ldquo;YYYYDDD_HMA_MODIS_NDSI_0.5km.img&rdquo;. The CPD dataset contains 25 compressed packages (named after the normal year) of the daily CPD dataset over HMA (2000-2024), and after uncompressing the files are named as &ldquo;YYYYDDD_CPD.tif&rdquo;. The YYYY represents the year and the DDD represents Julian day (001-365/366).</p> <p>5. The accuracy of this dataset has been well evaluated based on in-situ snow depth (SD) observations and high-resolution snow cover maps derived from Landsat images. The detailed information can be found in the paper (Deng, G., Tang, Z., Dong, C., Shao, D., &amp; Wang, X. (2024).

SWECA: High-resolution daily Snow Water Equivalent estimates for Mountainous Central Asia (1979–2016)

<p>The dataset provides daily estimates of snow water equivalent (SWE) for Central Asia, at a spatial resolution of 1km, covering the period from 1979 to 2016. The dataset were generated within the <a href="https://www.iamo.de/en/research/research-projects/details/sweca/">SWECA</a> project, supported by GEO Mountains under the Adaptation at Altitude Programme (Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation Project Number: 7F-10208.01.02).</p> <p><strong>Spatial Domain:</strong><br>The dataset encompasses the Central Asian region within the bounding coordinates 61W, 81E, 44N, 34S, which covers the Tian-Shan and Pamir mountains, a larger extent of the Hindukush mountains, and the northern part of the Karakoram mountains.</p> <p><strong>Data Generation and Validation:</strong><br>The SWE data was generated using the <a href="../records/10161423">GEMS snow mode</a>l (Umirbekov, Essery, and M&uuml;ller, 2024), forced by CHELSA-W5E5 daily climate data (Karger et al., 2023). Simulated SWE was validated using historical records of SWE from 1980 to 1992 from Central Asian Snow Survey database (Bedford and Tsarev, 2001), and by comparing extent of the modelled SWE with MODIS derived snowcover for two consecutive hydrological years (2015-2016). Data generation procedures and validation results will be provided in upcoming data description paper (TBD).</p> <p><strong>File Descriptions:</strong><br>The daily SWE estimates (in millimeters) are compiled into 37 GeoTIFF files, each corresponding to a hydrological year from 1979 to 2016. The hydrological year begins on October 1st and concludes on September 30th of next year. To avoid the need for auxiliary files, the corresponding date of each layer in the GeoTIFF file is incorporated as a layer`s name.&nbsp;</p> <p>References:&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li>Bedford, D. and Tsarev, B.
