Description:
This dataset represents the predicted distribution for Canada Lynx (Lynx canadensis) based on the average climatic conditions of the past 50 years (1950-2000), based on the agreement (spatial average) of 5 niche modeling techniques (BIOCLIM, Climate Space Model, Envelope Score, Environmental Distance, SMV). Localities used to produce the model were resampled from the core area (highest probability) of the predicted distribution based on 48 Worldclim 1.4 climatic variables and BIOCLIM.
