Environmental Conservation Datasets
This PDF file contains the binary potential range prediction maps for each species in the dataset under current climate. The prediction map for each species lists the species code (see Supplemental Online Table S2 for full species names), areas predicted to be climatically suitable/unsuitable under current climate, and the occurrence points for the species. See the main publication for model fitting details.

Environmental Conservation Faculty Publication Series
Lightning-caused wildfires account for a majority of burned area across the western United States (US), yet lightning remains among the more unpredictable spatiotemporal aspects of the fire environment and a challenge for both modeling and managing fire activity. A data synthesis of cloudto-ground lightning strikes, climate and fire data across the western US from 1992 to 2013 was conducted to better understand geographic variability in lightning-caused wildfire and the factors that influence interannual variability in lightning-caused wildfire at regional scales. Distinct geographic variability occurred in the proportion of fires and area burned attributed to lightning, with a majority of fires …
