Presence/absence of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) in Southern Rhodopes, Greece (1970-2019)

Listed in GBIF

This dataset documents Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) H.Karst.) occurrences at its southernmost biogeographic limit in the Southern Rhodope Mountains, Greece.

Description

Derived from systematic forest management plans and field surveys between 1970 and 2019, it comprises presence-absence data for 1,912 forest management stands (110,694 ha total) across three management sections: Western Nestos River (WNR; 67,043 ha), North-Eastern (BAN; 29,313 ha), and Trachoni (TRC; 14,267 ha).

Norway spruce was recorded in 500 stands (26,415 ha; 24% occupancy), including the previously undocumented southernmost Trachoni population (24°45'E, 41°21'N). The original dataset consists of polygon-based forest stand units compiled in an OGC GeoPackage (Zenodo DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17571125). For GBIF publication, each stand is represented by its georeferenced centroid (WGS84), providing spatially explicit presence–absence points that summarize the extent of Picea abies within this biogeographically significant boundary region.
