Bailey and van de Pol Literature search data

The .csv file contains information on papers published on 'extreme climatic events' or ECEs available on Web of Science. Data includes number of ECEs considered, type of study organism (e.g. plant, animal), and whether or not ECEs were effectively defined within the paper. All data on the ECE literature was collected using a literature analysis conducted in Web of Science with the term extreme* climatic* event*. We considered any studies that investigated the ecological impacts of ECEs and recorded the number of ECEs encompassed by each study. We used any ECE as defined by the author, as we were more interested in the number of events covered than the specific way in which they were defined. Review papers and meta-analyses were excluded. We found 243 studies, with the earliest study published in 1991.

本数据集配套的CSV文件收录了Web of Science平台中与“极端气候事件（extreme climatic events，ECEs）”相关的已发表论文信息。数据内容包括所纳入的极端气候事件数量、研究所用生物类群（如植物、动物），以及论文是否对极端气候事件作出了有效界定。所有极端气候事件相关文献的数据，均通过在Web of Science中以通配符检索式“extreme* climatic* event*”开展文献分析获取。本次研究纳入所有探究极端气候事件生态影响、且记录了每项研究所涵盖的极端气候事件数量的文献。我们采用作者自行界定的极端气候事件定义，因本次研究的核心关注点为研究涵盖的事件总数，而非其定义的具体方式。本数据集排除综述类论文与元分析（meta-analyses）文献。最终共纳入243项相关研究，其中最早的研究发表于1991年。
