Data for: Range reshuffling: climate change, invasive species, and the case of Nothofagus forests in Aotearoa New Zealand

Aim:
The impact of climate change on forest biodiversity and ecosystem services will be partly determined by the relative fortunes of invasive and native forest trees under future conditions. Aotearoa New Zealand has high conservation value native forests and one of the world’s worst invasive tree problems. We assess the relative effects of habitat redistribution on native Nothofagus and invasive conifer (Pinaceae) species in New Zealand as a case study on the compounding impacts of climate change and tree invasions.
Location:
Aotearoa New Zealand
Methods:
We use species distribution models (SDMs) to predict the current and future distribution of habitat for five native Nothofagus species and 13 invasive conifer species under two 2070 climate scenarios. We calculate habitat loss/gain for all species and examine overlap between the invasive and native species now and in the future.  
Results:
Most species will lose habitat overall. The native species saw large changes in the distribu..., Some data were drawn from the New Zealand Natural Forest plot data collected between January 2002 and 2022 by the LUCAS programme for the New Zealand Ministry for the Environment. Other data orignated from our own field work (van Galen et. al. (2023) Molecular Ecology 32, 2092– 2109). The remaining data used in the manuscript were downloaded from the Atlas of Living Australia (ALA) and the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF); due to licensing requirements these data are available via DOIs provided in the manuscript and README file., R (open source) is required for running the code and opening .rds files. Other files are .csv and .tiff. , # Data for \"Range reshuffling: climate change, invasive species, and the case of Nothofagus forests in Aotearoa New Zealand\"
