Spatially Distributed Lake Mendota EXO Multi-Parameter Sonde Measurements Summer 2019
This data was collected over 9 sampling trips from June to August 2019. 35 grid boxes were generated over Lake Mendota. Before each sampling effort, sample point locations were randomized within each grid box. Surface measurements were taken with an EXO multi-parameter sonde at the 35 locations throughout Lake Mendota during each sampling trip. Measurements include temperature, conductivity, chlorophyll, phycocyanin, turbidity, dissolved organic material, ODO, pH, and pressure.

ICARIA: spatially distributed climate projections from statistical downscaling
<p><strong>ICARIA </strong>project had as one of its main purposes to develop coherent, reliable and usable downscaled climate projections from the last CMIP6 in order to construct the basis for efficient support to climate adaptation and decision-making of the related stakeholders, supporting the adaptation of critical assets within the project. These projections were obtained with also the purpose of being freely available for further use in subsequent studies and, hence, foster adaptation to climate change in more areas. Therefore, ICARIA’s climate information is already based on CMIP6 models and incorporating in its workflow the current SSPs. The presented high-resolution future climate projections display a unique dataset, being obtained from a high-quality and high-density set of weather observations that are then interpolated to the case studies of interest in a <strong>100x100m resolution grid, </strong>which is the main outcome offered in this publication. These models will provide the scenarios to be considered within the Risk Assessment and the design and development of all adaptation measures coming as ICARIA outcomes.</p> <p>For further details, find here a brief of the <strong>methodology </strong>followed:<strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>----- </strong></p> <p><em>The statistical downscaling methodology applied in ICARIA by FIC, named FICLIMA (Ribalaygua et al. 2013), consists of a two-step analogue/regression statistical method which has been used in national and international projects with good verification results (i.e.: Monjo et al. 2016). The first step is common for all simulated climate variables and it is based on an analogue stratification (Zorita et al. 1993). An analogue method was applied based on the hypothesis that ‘analogue’ atmospheric patterns (predictors) should cause analogue local effects (predictands), which means that the number of days that were most similar to the day to be downscaled was selected. The similarity between any two days was measured according to three nested synoptic windows (with different weights) and four large-scale fields using a pseudo-Euclidean distance between the large-scale fields used as predictors. For each predictor, the weighted Euclidean distance was calculated and standardised by substituting it with the closest percentile of a reference population of weighted Euclidean distances for that predictor. This method is a good method for reproducing nonlinear relationships between predictors and the predictands, but it could not be used to simulate values outside of the range of observed values. In order to overcome this problem and obtain a better simulation, a second step was required.</em></p> <p><em>For this second step, the procedures applied depend on the variable of interest. To determine the temperature, multiple linear regression analysis for the selected number of most analogous days was performed for each station and for each problem day. From a group of potential predictors, the linear regression selected those with the highest correlation, using a forward and backward stepwise approach.</em></p> <p><em>For precipitation, a group of m problem days (we use the whole days of a month) is downscaled. For each problem day we obtain a “preliminary precipitation amount” averaging the rain amount of its n most analogous days, so we can sort the m problem days from the highest to the lowest “preliminary precipitation amount”. For assigning the final precipitation amount, all amounts of the m×n analogous days are sorted and clustered in m groups. Every quantity is finally assigned, orderly, to the m days previously sorted by the “preliminary precipitation amount”.</em></p> <p><em>For wind or relative humidity, the second step is a transfer function between the observed probability distribution and the simulated one using the averaged values from the n = 30 analogous days. Particularly, a parametric bias correction was performed to the time series obtained from the analogue stratification (first step). In order to estimate the improvement of this procedure, the bias correction was also applied to the direct model outputs.</em></p> <p><em>This second step done at a daily scale with an inner thorough verification procedure is essential and the main differentiating process of FICLIMA method. It extends beyond mean values to include extremes and covers all time scales, including daily intervals. With the verification it can be proven If the method correctly simulates changes from one day to the next, indicating an effective capture of the underlying physical connections between predictors and predictands. These physical links remain relatively consistent, even in the face of climate change (as opposed to purely empirical relationships that might shift). In essence, this approach theoretically addresses the primary challenge in statistical downscaling known as the non-stationarity problem. This problem questions the stability of predictor/predictand relationships established in the past, probing whether these relationships will persist in the future.</em></p> <p>-----</p> <p>The dataset shared here includes information for the three case studies tackled in ICARIA: <strong>Barcelona Metropolitan Area (AMB), Salzburg Region (SLZ), and South Aegean Region (SAR)</strong>.

Spatial distribution of snow depth for the Green Lakes Valley, 1997 - 2019
Climate warming represents an abiotic driver for change in alpine ecosystems, potentially altering the seasonal snowpack and thus water availability into the surrounding landscape. Future changes in snow accumulation and snowmelt distribution may have profound impacts on the flora and fauna of alpine ecosystems. In this regard, recent research has leveraged multi-year estimates of the spatial distribution of snow water equivalent (SWE) toward understanding alpine ecosystem function. The purpose of this project is to investigate the spatial variability of maximum snow depth at Niwot Ridge on an inter-annual basis.
Data from: Spatial distribution of the potential forest biomass availability in Europe
<p>European forests are considered a crucial resource for supplying biomass to a growing bio-economy in Europe. This study aimed to assess the potential availability of forest biomass from European forests and its spatial distribution. We tried to answer the questions (i) how is the potential forest biomass availability spatially distributed across Europe and (ii) where are hotspots of potential forest biomass availability located?</p> <p>The spatial distribution of woody biomass potentials was assessed for 2020 for stemwood, residues (branches and harvest losses) and stumps for 39 European countries. Using the European Forest Information SCENario (EFISCEN) model and international forest statistics, we estimated the theoretical amount of biomass that could be available based on the current and future development of the forest age-structure, growing stock and increment and forest management regimes. We combined these estimates with a set of environmental (site productivity, soil and water protection and biodiversity protection) and technical (recovery rate, soil bearing capacity) constraints, which reduced the amount of woody biomass that could potentially be available. We mapped the potential biomass availability at the level of administrative units and at the 10 km × 10 km grid level to gain insight into the spatial distribution of the woody biomass potentials.</p> <p>According to our results, the total availability of forest biomass ranges between 357 and 551 Tg dry matter per year. The largest potential supply of woody biomass per unit of land can be found in northern Europe (southern Finland and Sweden, Estonia and Latvia), central Europe (Austria, Czech Republic, and southern Germany), Slovenia, southwest France and Portugal. However, large parts of these potentials are already used to produce materials and energy. The distribution of biomass potentials that are currently unused only partially coincides with regions that currently have high levels of wood production.</p> <p>Our study shows how the forest biomass potentials are spatially distributed across the European continent, thereby providing insight into where policies could focus on an increase of the supply of woody biomass from forests. Future research on potential biomass availability from European forests should also consider to what extent forest owners would be willing to mobilise additional biomass from their forests and at what costs the estimated potentials could be mobilised.</p> <p>This dataset contains the data of the map presented in Figure 2A: Estimated spatial distribution of forest biomass availability according to the BASE potential (ton dry matter ha-1 land yr-1) at the grid (10x10 km) level.</p>
Frog spatial distribution data (El Verde + Bisley)
Most Puerto Rican Eleutherodactylus are terrestrial frogs that breed for prolonged periods of time in more or less continuous habitat. Because their life cycle lacks a free living larvae stage, reproductive behavior is not tied to bodies of water and they do not have the large aggregations typical of many aquatic breeders. For these reasons, assessing their population status requires examining fairly large areas of habitat. I began systematically sampling the anuran community on a 12 ha grid at the Bisley watersheds in 1989 and a second 16 ha grid at El Verde in 1993. These efforts have provided a comprehensive data set that can be used to evaluate future changes in the anuran community in this forest. Count of frogs, various frog predators, and various frog preys were taken at regular intervals on the grids. Support for this work was provided by grants BSR-8811902, DEB-9411973, DEB-9705814 , DEB-0080538, DEB-0218039 , DEB-0620910 , DEB-1239764, DEB-1546686, and DEB-1831952 from the National Science Foundation to the University of Puerto Rico as part of the Luquillo Long-Term Ecological Research Program.

Spatial distribution of snow water equivalent for the Niwot Ridge, 1996 - 2019
This dataset provides a daily estimation of snow water equivalent for the Niwot Ridge during snow melting period from 1997 to 2019 at 30-meter spatial resolution. The dataset includes two series of SWE data: 1) 1996-2007 daily SWE dataset is generated by Jepsen et al., (2012); 2) 2008-2019 daily SWE dataset is generated by Dr. Kehan Yang following the same method used by Jepsen et al., (2012). In brief, a physically based reconstruction model is used to calculate daily SWE backward from snow disappearance date to peak snow accumulation. The infilled hourly climate data set for C1, Saddle and D1 (data available at https://portal.edirepository.org/nis/mapbrowse?packageid=knb-lter-nwt.168.2) is interpolated and used as the meteorological forcing in the snow energy balance calculation of SWE reconstruction. The shortwave radiation is estimated by downscaling hourly product of the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) using TOPORAD tool. The USGS Landsat Level-3 fractional snow-covered area product is used to proportion potential energy flux for snowmelt at the pixel scale. Please see detailed methods included with this data package for more details and references.
Spatial distribution data set of wetlands in Baiyangdian Basin
<p>As one of the wetland systems in the northern plain of China, Baiyangdian plays a key role in ensuring the water resources security and good ecological environment of Xiong'an New Area. Understanding the current situation of the wetland ecosystem in Baiyangdian basin is also of great significance for the construction of the New Area and future scientific planning. Based on the 10 meter spatial resolution sentinel-2B image provided by ESA in September 2017, combined with Google Earth high resolution satellite image (resolution 0.23m), the network distribution map and water system distribution map of Baiyangdian basin wetland ecosystem in 2017 were drawn by artificial visual interpretation and machine automatic classification It provides the basis for the study of the connectivity (including hydrological connectivity and landscape connectivity).</p> <p>The boundary of Baiyangdian basin in this data set is from the basic geographic information map of Baiyangdian basin provided by Zhou Wei and others. The DEM is the GDEM digital elevation data with 30m resolution. The original image data of wetland remote sensing classification comes from the sentinel-2b remote sensing image provided by ESA on September 20, 2017. This data set uses the second, third, fourth and eighth bands of 10 meter resolution in the image, carries out radiation calibration, mosaic, mosaic and other preprocessing operations in SNAP and ArcGIS 10.2 software, and carries out supervised classification in ENVI 5.3 software. The data used for river channel extraction is based on Google Earth high resolution satellite images.</p> <p>The research and development steps of this dataset include: preprocessing sentinel-2B image, establishing wetland classification system and selecting samples, mapping the latest wetland ecosystem network distribution map of Baiyangdian basin by support vector machine classification; obtaining river network of Baiyangdian basin by visual interpretation based on Google Earth high resolution satellite image (resolution 0.23m).</p> <p>The spatial distribution data set of Baiyangdian Wetland includes vector data and raster data: (1) Baiyangdian basin boundary data (. SHP); Baiyangdian basin river network data (. shp); (2) Baiyangdian basin land use / cover classification data (including the classification data of the study area and the river 3 km buffer) (. tif); Baiyangdian basin constructed wetland and natural wetland distribution map (. shp); Baiyangdian basin slope map (. tif).</p> <p>According to the river network map of Baiyangdian basin obtained by manual visual interpretation, the total length of the river in Baiyangdian basin is about 2440 km and the total area is 514 km2. Among them, there are 177 km2 river channels in mountainous area, 866 km in length, distributed in Northeast southwest direction, mostly at the junction of forest land and cultivated land; and 337 km2 river channels in plain area, 1574 km in length.</p> <p>Baiyangdian basin is divided into eight types of land use / cover: river, flood plain, lake, marsh, ditch, cultivated land, forest land and construction land. The remote sensing monitoring results show that the wetland area of Baiyangdian basin accounted for 13.90 % in 2017. Among all wetland types, the area of marsh is the largest, followed by the area of flood plain, ditch accounts for about 1%, and the proportion of lake and river is less than 0.5%. Combined with the land use / cover classification map and the distribution of slope and elevation, it can be seen that nearly 60% of the area of woodland is distributed in 10 ° to 30 ° mountain area, and the rest of the land use / cover types are mainly distributed in 0 ° to 2 ° area. The elevation statistics show that nearly 80% of the lakes and large reservoirs are distributed in the height of 100 m to 300 m, the distribution of marsh is relatively uniform, mainly in the high altitude area of 20 m to 300 m, the types of construction land, flood area and cultivated land are mainly concentrated in the area of 20 m to 100 m, and rivers and ditches are mainly concentrated in the area of 0 m to 100 m.</p> <p>Based on the classification results of land use / cover within the river, it can be found that the main land use type is wetland. Specifically, the types of swamp, flood area and lake are the most, while the types of ditch and river are less. With the increase of the buffer area, the proportion of non wetland type gradually increased, while the proportion of wetland type gradually decreased. The main wetland types in 1-3km buffer zone on both sides of the river are swamp and flood zone. It is worth noting that nearly one third of the River belongs to cultivated land, that is, the river occupation is serious. In terms of area, about 1 / 3 rivers and 3 / 4 lakes are distributed in the river course. Most of the water bodies in the river course are controlled by human beings, but the marsh area in the river course only accounts for about 3% of the marsh area in the whole river course.</p> <p>River occupation will not only directly reduce the connectivity of wetlands in the basin, but also cause some environmental and economic problems such as water pollution. However, if the connectivity of wetlands is reduced, the ecological and environmental functions of wetlands will be destroyed, which will pose a great threat to the water security of the basin. Taking Baiyangdian basin as a whole, improving the connectivity of wetlands and enhancing the ecological and environmental functions of wetlands in the basin will help to improve the water ecological and environmental security of xiong'an new area and Baiyangdian basin.</p>

Spatial clustering of Neobuccinum eatoni occurrence data for potential distribution modeling
<p>The occurrence dataset for <em>Neobuccinum eatoni</em> was compiled through filtration process, starting with records from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) and supplemented by museum specimens and additional sources like SOMBASE, iBOL, NIWA, ANTABIF, and SCAR-AntOBIS. Further data were sourced from the National Museum of Natural History in Paris, the University of Vigo, and recent fieldwork in Antarctica, Heard Island, and Kerguelen Island. Records were meticulously screened to remove misidentified specimens, inaccurate locations, duplicates, and outdated entries, ensuring accuracy and relevance. To address spatial autocorrelation, clustering methods divided the data into distinct geographic clusters, producing a refined dataset used to model <em>N. eatoni</em>'s potential distribution with enhanced predictive reliability by reducing spatial autocorrelation effects.</p>

Spatial distribution of housing rental value in Amsterdam 1647-1652
<p>This dataset visualises the spatial distribution of the rental value in Amsterdam between 1647 and 1652. The source of rental value comes from the <em>Verponding </em>registration in Amsterdam. The <em>verponding</em> or the ‘<em>Verpondings-quohieren van den 8sten penning</em>’ was a tax in the Netherlands on the 8<sup>th</sup> penny of the rental value of immovable property that had to be paid annually. In Amsterdam, the citywide <em>verponding </em>registration started in 1647 and continued into the early 19<sup>th</sup> century. With the introduction of the cadastre system in 1810, the <em>verponding</em> came to an end.</p> <p>The original tax registration is kept in the Amsterdam City Archives (Archief nr. <a href="https://archief.amsterdam/inventarissen/details/5044/withscans/0/findingaid/5044/start/0/limit/10/flimit/5">5044</a>) and the four registration books transcribed in this dataset are Archief 5044, inventory <a href="https://archief.amsterdam/inventarissen/scans/5044/33.2/start/0/limit/10/highlight/2">255</a>, 273, <a href="https://archief.amsterdam/inventarissen/scans/5044/33.28/start/0/limit/10/highlight/4">281</a>, <a href="https://archief.amsterdam/inventarissen/scans/5044/33.31/start/0/limit/10/highlight/4">284</a>. The <em>verponding </em>was collected by districts (<em>wijken</em>). The tax collectors documented their collecting route by writing down the street or street-section names as they proceed. For each property, the collector wrote down the names of the owner and, if applicable, the renter (after ‘per’), and the estimated rental value of the property (in guilders). Next to the rental value was the tax charged (in guilders and stuivers). Below the owner/renter names and rental value were the records of tax payments by year.</p> <p>This dataset digitises four registration books of the <em>verponding </em>between 1647 and 1652 in two ways. First, it transcribes the rental value of all real estate properties listed in the registrations. The names of the owners/renters are transcribed only selectively, focusing on the properties that exceeded an annual rental value of 300 guilders. These transcriptions can be found in Verponding1647-1652.csv. For a detailed introduction to the data, see Verponding1647-1652_data_introduction.txt.</p> <p>Second, it geo-references the registrations based on the street names and the reconstruction of tax collectors’ travel routes in the <em>verponding</em>. The tax records are then plotted on the historical map of Amsterdam using the first cadaster of 1832 as a reference. Since the geo-reference is based on the street or street sections, the location of each record/house may not be the exact location but rather a close proximation of the possible locations based on the street names and the sequence of the records on the same street or street section. Therefore, this geo-referenced <em>verponding</em> can be used to visualise the rental value distribution in Amsterdam between 1647 and 1652. The preview below shows an extrapolation of rental values in Amsterdam. And for the geo-referenced GIS files, see Verponding_wijken.shp.</p> <p><strong>GIS specifications:</strong></p> <p>Coordination Reference System (CRS): Amersfoort/RD New (ESPG:28992)</p> <p>Historical map tiles <a href="https://images.diginfra.net/webmapper/maps/berckenrode/{z}/{x}/{y}.png">URL</a> (From <a href="https://tiles.amsterdamtimemachine.nl/#16/52.3691/4.8935">Amsterdam Time Machine</a>)</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>NB: This <em>verponding</em> dataset is a provisional version.
