This subdirectory contains databases used to develop models of the potential distribution for 281 vertebrate species for the ND GAP. Databases include:(1) a species list that contains the common name, scientific name, and TNCcode for the vertebrate species(TNCcode is needed to identify binary rasters of species predicted distributions on other disks), (2) vertebrate models (nd*model.xls) describing species habitat affinities, (3) references used to develop the model databases (nd*modelref.xls) and (4) a cross walk from pixel values of the ND GAP land cover and the alliances in the National Vegetation Classification System used in modelling each potential distribution of vertebrate species (ndvertalliancexref.xls).
