Description
| - 1. Macroecology has prospered in recent years due in part to the wide array of climatic data that has become available for research, such as WorldClim and CliMond. However, important environmental variables are still missing, including spatial datasets on UV-B radiation, an increasingly recognized driver of ecological processes. 2. We developed a set of UV-B surfaces (glUV) suitable to match common spatial scales in macroecology. Our dataset is based on remotely sensed records from NASA's Ozone Monitoring Instrument (Aura-OMI). Following a similar approach as for the WorldClim and CliMond datasets, we processed daily measurements acquired over a period of eight years into six ecologically meaningful variables with a 15-arc minute resolution. We correlated our datasets with selected variables of those existing bioclimatic surfaces for land and with Terra-MODIS Sea Surface Temperature for ocean regions to test for relations to known gradients and patterns. 3. UV-B surfaces showed a distinct seasonal variance, while the intensity of UV-B radiation decreased towards higher latitudes and was modified by topographic and climatic heterogeneity. UV-B surfaces were correlated with global mean temperature and annual mean radiation data, but exhibited variable spatial associations across the globe. UV-B surfaces were otherwise widely independent of existing bioclimatic products. 4. Our dataset provides new climatological information relevant for macroecological analyses. As UV-B is a known driver of numerous biological patterns and processes, our dataset offers the potential to generate a better understanding of these dynamics in macroecology, biogeography, global change research and beyond. The glUV dataset containing monthly mean UV-B data and six derived UV-B surfaces is freely available for download at: http://www.ufz.de/gluv.
