Tree species distributions of southern North America under current and future climate to year 2100

This data publication contains raster digital files of modeled potential distributions for 184 wide-ranging tree species in southern North America and 258 tree species common in Mexico under climate during 1900-1990, and three end-of-century (2071-2100) climate projections. Mean accuracies of withheld samples for models, based on climate of 1900-1990, were 0.98 with about 5 variables per model and temperature of the coldest month or quarter as most important variables.The purpose of this project was to provide tree distributions under different climates in southern North America.For more information about these data and this project, see Hanberry (in review).
