This layer provides a transformation of environmental layer to best predict fern compositional trunover. Generalized Dissimilarity Modelling was used to produce a model of biotic composition in relation ship to environment and biogeography. This model was used to transform and scale environmental layers to predict community composition. These transformed environmental layers can be used to predict commmunity composition changes, and to classify New Zealand into areas of similar biotic composition. The biotic data used for this model include all fern taxa from NVS recce data and estimated community compositions from pollen data.

Information used to produce this layer include: N:\Projects\SL0931_TFBISbeyondLENZ\Data\GIS\Grids\AVPredictors\rain GDM model of all plant taxa
