Global distribution of marine forests [literature records]

Description :

 The dataset provides a fine-tuned dataset of marine ecosystem-structuring species of large brown algae and seagrasses compiled from literature, with dereplicated occurrence records, taxonomically standardized, and considering important physiological and biogeographical traits.


The dataset is documented in the peer reviewed article "Assis, J., Fragkopoulou, E., Frade, D. et al. A fine-tuned global distribution dataset of marine forests. Sci Data 7, 119 (2020). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-020-0459-x"
