DuneFront deliverable D4.2 - Biological boundary conditions

[Disclaimer: Given their associated uncertainties and coarse resolution, the data layers in this archive are meant for broad-scale screening and studies integrating across multiple locations. We emphasize in the strongest possible terms that data from individual points are not suitable for any form of local, site-specific assessment or study; users interested in these use cases should prefer relevant higher-precision, local datasets. We also emphasize the need to carefully consider the provided uncertainties in any application. See associated report for more details about data limitations, uncertainties and use cases] The European project DuneFront (https://dunefront.eu, https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/101135410) is working to improve coastal protection across Europe by using Nature-based Solutions (NbS), such as Dune-Dike hybrids (DD-hybrids), to defend coastlines from extreme weather and rising sea levels. Within this project, this “Biological boundary conditions” deliverable focuses on developing species distribution models at kilometric scale for key dune species. The dataset is made of a number of multi-layer geopackage files (folder BART-maps) containing model predictions by species, as well as a series of csv files containing information about each model's performance (folder BART-eval). See the attached deliverable report (pdf) for detailed information on each file, use notes, literature references, and links to the underlying code.
