Expert Vetted Distribution Models of Terrestrial and Freshwater Taxa of Conservation Concern in Northern Australia

A collection of present-day distributions of terrestrial and freshwater taxa of conservation concern under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act 1999. Mainly focuses on Northern Australia, but also includes some taxa found throughout mainland Australia and Tasmania. The distribution maps were either from species distribution models created using Maxent or from buffering occurrence records cut according to suitable areas determined by experts. Anna Pintor, Erin Graham (James Cook University)本数据集收录了依据《1999年环境保护与生物多样性保护（Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation，EPBC）法案》需纳入保护关注范畴的陆地与淡水类群的现存分布数据。其研究范围主要聚焦澳大利亚北部，同时也涵盖了分布于澳大利亚大陆全境及塔斯马尼亚州的部分类群。数据集配套的分布地图，要么源自采用Maxent构建的物种分布模型，要么来自依据专家划定的适宜生境范围对物种出现记录进行缓冲处理后得到的结果。 安娜·平托尔（Anna Pintor）、埃琳·格雷厄姆（Erin Graham）（詹姆斯·库克大学）
