fastbioclim: An R package for creating custom‐time bioclimatic and derived environmental summary variables

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Bioclimatic variables, widely used in ecological and biogeographical studies, are typically derived from 30‐year averages of monthly data (e.g. 1971–2000). Unfortunately, the use of these long‐term averaged variables often creates a temporal mismatch with the observational data collected, which potentially undermines how environmental ...
