Abstract: Gridded spatial fields (raster objects) containing the species distribution models (SDMs) projections of mean annual plankton total plankton, phytoplankton and zooplankton species diversity from Benedetti et al. (2021). The present .grd file ('rasterStack' object in R) contain the fields of mean annual surface plankton/phytoplankton/zooplankton species diversity for the contemporary (2012-2031) and future (2081-2100) conditions of the global open ocean (i.e., data underlying those maps in Figure 1 and Figure 3 of Benedetti et al., 2021). Layers...
