Climate based seed zones for Mexico: spatial grids to guide reforestation under observed and projected climate change

DOI: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1052141 

This climate data included in this archive were used to delineate seed zones as described in Castellanos-Acua et al 2018. Note that in order to minimzie fragmentation at zone boundaries, a single low pass filter has been applied to the climate layers included here. The original data can be downloaded at http:/tinyurl.com/ClimateNA.

The file format is ESRI ASCII with a corresponding projection file (WGS84 geographic projection).
