Map of Ecosystems Types in Sierra Nevada mountain (southern Spain)

Map showing the spatial distribution of ecosystems identified in Sierra Nevada high mountain (southern Spain). Several sources were used to generate spatial distribution of ecosystem types. The Land Cover and Use Information System of Spain (SIOSE)(https://www.siose.es/) was used as base spatial information. Other technical reports also supported the spatialization and identification of the ecosystem types (e.g. Molero-Mesa, J.; Pérez Raya, F.; López Nieto, J.M.; El Aallali, A. & Hita Fernández, J.A. (2001). Cartografía y evaluación de la vegetación del Parque Natural de Sierra Nevada [Mapping and assessment of the vegetation of the Sierra Nevada Nature Reserve]. Department of the Environment. Regional Government of Andalusia). The main ecosystem types identified were: natural forests (Holm oak and Pyrenean oak forests [Quercus ilex and Q. pyrenaica], Scot pine forests [Pinus sylvestris var. nevadensis]), high-mountain shrublands (Juniperus communis), pine plantations, high-mountain grasslands ("borreguiles) among others. The data generated is stored as a vectorial file (shapefile). The coordinate reference system is UTM Zone 30N WGS84) (epsg:23030).

本地图展示了西班牙南部内华达山脉高山生态系统的空间分布情况。本数据集依托多源数据生成生态系统类型的空间分布图层：以西班牙土地覆盖与利用信息系统（SIOSE，https://www.siose.es/）作为基础空间数据源，同时辅以多项技术报告支撑生态系统类型的空间化识别与分类工作（例如：Molero-Mesa, J.; Pérez Raya, F.; López Nieto, J.M.; El Aallali, A. & Hita Fernández, J.A. (2001). 《内华达山脉自然保护区植被制图与评估》[Cartografía y evaluación de la vegetación del Parque Natural de Sierra Nevada]. 安达卢西亚大区环境部）。本次研究识别的主要生态系统类型包括：天然林（冬青栎林与比利牛斯栎林[Quercus ilex 与 Q. pyrenaica]、苏格兰松变种内华达松林[Pinus sylvestris var. nevadensis]）、高山灌丛（欧洲刺柏灌丛[Juniperus communis]）、人工松林、高山草原（"borreguiles"）等。本数据集生成的结果以矢量文件（shapefile）格式存储，坐标系采用UTM 30N WGS84（EPSG:23030）。
