Global Marine Environment Datasets
GMED is a global marine environment dataset. Publicly available climatic, biological and geophysical environmental layers of both present day, past and future environmental conditions. Layers were compiled together into a uniform Geographic Informations System ready dataset having similar extent and spatial resolution (5 arc-minute, approx. 9.2 km). The GMED dataset is ready to use with popular species distribution modelling (SDM) software like Maximum entropy (MaxENT) and for any other marine environment visualisation excercise.
