Abstract

The project included a hydrological study based on the Group on Earth Observations Biodiversity Observation Network (GEO-BoN) framework - comparative analysis climate change modelling. This is a globally consistent bio-climatic stratification based upon a statistical quantitative approach using spatially distributed climate data. Using this model, calculations are provided regarding bioclimatic zones and predicted changes in distribution by the year 2050. Bioclimatic zones can be matched to Ecoregions, Vegetation Types, and Forest Classes. Results are shown through graphic synthesis and simulations.
