Wetland cover and species richness data table

These data represent the proportional wetland coverage (ha / 100km^2) of the conterminous United States spatially joined to the species richness of amphibians, birds, mammals, reptiles and cumulative endemic species. Data is provided as both a csv file and as a georeferenced shapefile.Any use of this data should include citation to both: Dertien et al. 2020.
