| Summary: | Potential distribution of biomes (Potential Natural Vegetation) at 250 m spatial resolution based on the BIOME 6000 data set (8057 modern pollen-based site reconstructions). Predicted at 250 m using Ensemble Machine Learning and relief and climate variables representing the climate for the last 20+ years. Processing steps are described in detail here . Maps with "_sd_" contain estimated model errors per class. Antartica is not included. Hengl T, Walsh MG, Sanderman J, Wheeler I, Harrison SP, Prentice IC. 2018.
