@BarryCooke

mpb-maps/climate-projections.Rmd needs to be updated to explain the generated maps.

  • How were these generated, and how can they be regenerated as needed? Include scripts/code.

  • What do the maps represent, exactly? What do the raster values mean and how should they be interpreted?

    The response is a float number which can be used as a climatic multiplier on MPB baseline reproductive rate.

    Not sure if this is totally accurate, since values aren't bound between [0, 1].

  • What are the caveats to using these maps (i.e., assumptions, limitations, etc.)?

  • What is the availability of the maps and their underlying data? Are they publicly available? From where can they be downloaded? With whom can they be shared?

@MelinaHoule see the details in the linked papers (which I can email you if needed).

I'll still keep adding info as I acquire it, and hopefully @BarryCooke can fill in the details re: BioSim.

@BarryCooke I need this info ASAP. Ideally, we can get a reporducible way to regenerate these maps to produce annual climate suitability layers.

Mathieu Fortin's BioSIM R package and corresponding BioSIM web API creates annual MPB SLR indices (and many more!)

https://sourceforge.net/p/mrnfforesttools/biosimclient/wiki/BioSIM-R/

We will move to using these instead of the pregenerated maps from years ago. Closing.
