Downloads

The two tables below contain links to download every dataset that makes up Nature’s Network. The first table — Comprehensive data list — offers individual downloads for each dataset. The second table — Bundled download packages — contains three downloadable sets of bundled data:

  1. Nature’s Network
  2. Species models
  3. Supporting data

All of the datasets included in each download set are listed.
