BioSCape Mapping Units Dataset

These data are collected for the NASA-funded BioSCape Project: “Impacts of Invasive Alien Species on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Functioning”. This particular dataset was curated to guide the sampling of the BioSCape Causal Inference Training Dataset and was prepared following these pre-established criteria:

• Uniform areas are grouped together in terms of four pre-selected environmental variables
• Environmental variables were selected and categorized to minimize the total number of mapping units (+-150)
