Region-wide distribution models of aquatic species in the Baltic Sea

A unified dataset of 630 species distribution models covering the whole Baltic Sea, including the Danish Straits and Kattegat. The dataset contains distribution models and maps for all fish, macrophytes, and invertebrates for which sufficient observation data within the region were available. The predicted distribution maps are provided in 250 m resolution and include several outputs intended to support spatial planning in the region, including spatial confidence estimates and expert evaluation scores for each species. Importantly, the dataset was produced using a harmonized methodology suitable across a wide range of species, allowing users to combine and compare different species and species groups for subsequent spatial analyses.
