The study was conducted in a tropical montane forest in the Bolivian Andes near the town of Chulumani during two years from 2010-2012. We selected eight study sites. At each...

Due to their age, limited ability of dispersal and soft body, gastropods represent ideal model organisms to test the influence of past climatic and/or environmental changes on...

The aim of the project is to get a global pattern of the influence of climate change in biological diversification. For that, phylogenetic information of taxa worldwide...

During the interglacial periods in the Pleistocene to Holocene coral reefs proliferated in the Red Sea and Persian Gulf. In the interceding glacial periods however, coral reefs...

The population density maps presented here for the UNDESERT study areas in Burkina Faso, Benin, Niger and Senegal for 1990, 2000 and 2010 were produced by the Columbia...

On June 29, 2009, NASA and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) of Japan released a Global Digital Elevation Model (GDEM) to users worldwide at no charge as a...

NEO NASA Earth Observations, NDVI 16 day Terra MODIS, September 2000 to September 2014

The dataset is a map in tif format. The erodibility map was generated by overlaying the slope layer and the lithofacies layer. The resulting map was generated by using...

Phylogeny: A manageable data set of 18 species and 4 DNA marker, 2 mitochondrial marker (12S, 16S,) and 2 nuclear marker (H3, 28S), is used to reconstruct the phylogeny of...

The dataset is a map in tif format, generated from pedogeological map of Atacora mountain. The lithofacies map identify the different types of rock or sediment/soil surface on...

The project deals with the diversification of three (angiosperm) plant genera (Aglaia, Dysoxylum, Hoya) in the Indomalesian, Australasian and Pacific islands region, and...

Our study objective is the evolutionary history of the neotropical Meliaceae genus Cedrela (c. 18 species), and the sister clade (Toona) which today is restricted to tropical...

The ability of lineages to adapt to changing environmental conditions crucially depends on changes of the species' ecological niche, but little is known about the triggers and...

Climate proxy Fossil seeds of Vitaceae from Oligocene to Pliocene from Western, Eastern Siberia and Russian Far East Temporal coverage: Oligocene, Miocene, Pliocene

Differences in GCMs cause high uncertainty for future climate projections in Africa, especially considering the precipitation signal. The data set consists of 19 bioclimatic...

To determine the adative potential in the face of climate change of the common pond snail, Radix balthica, mainly towards temperature, we use different approaches. We record...

Global climate change is expected to alter species present distributions, thus a shift of species distributions towards higher latitudes and altitudes is predicted. The response...

Our main aim is the time-lined correlation of marine species abundance data of the Dogger Bank (North Sea)with environmental variables like temperature, salinity, current...

The dataset is the outcome of a household survey conducted in two villages in northern Benin, West Africa. It contains, firstly, information about multi-purpose useful plant...

This dataset describes microstratification and biodiversity in a cold-temperate, macrophyte-dominated waterbody (for list of abiotic/biotic parameters see below). Hourly data of...
