This file contains descriptions and statistical summaries of units classified in Tier 1 (Major Environmental Units) and Tier 2 (Habitat Complexes) of the Antarctic Ecosystem Typology for ice-free lands v1.0. General contextual information includes: an overview of Tier 1 of the typology tabulated text descriptions of the key charaterisics and distributions for nine Major Environmental Units graphic summaries of the environmental properties of each unit, including cloud cover, meltwater extent, and mean annual precipitation, mean temperature for 2014-2015, the number of degree-days excveeding -5 degrees Celsius, solar radiation calculated from aspect, reflected light, and other factors, elevation above sea level, topographic rugosity and slope based a the digital elevation model, and average wind speed graphic summaries of the extent and proportional representation of each Habitat Complex within in each Antarctive Conservation Biogeographic region. maps showing the extent of all Habitat Complexes (Tier 2) ...
