Mosses occurrences dataset from the temperate region of the north hemisphere: tempNorthBryo.

Dataset of publicly available biodiversity information of mosses records from the temperate region of the Northern Hemisphere. It contains 9,195,062 occurrences result of the compilation, cleaning, enrichment and validation from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF 2021; phylum=Bryophyta), the Botanical Information and Ecology Network (BIEN), Consortium of North American Bryophyte Herbaria (CNABH) and the Integrated digitized biocollections (iDigBio). This database was created to assess and quantify how the application of different filters and taxonomic standardization databases affect the spatial patterns of species richness.
