The dataset provides geographic coordinates for inventor and applicant locations in 18.8 million patent documents spanning over more than 30 years. The geocoded data are further allocated to the corresponding countries, regions and cities. When the addre
However, for regions that were assessed earlier in the GAA2, the data are comparatively less current than for the regions completed during the latter stages of the project. For example, towards the end of the GAA2, the severity, scope and timing of the effects of climate change were at ...

These patterns are particularly evident in the tropical realm, whereas some positive responses of biodiversity to climate change occur in non-tropical regions in natural habitats. A high availability of nearby natural habitat often mitigates reductions in insect abundance and richness associated with ...
Boer populations belonging to this dataset come from many different climatic zones, with a wide range of environmental variations; for example, the population from Switzerland originated from a sample site with continental climate that exposed individuals to different temperatures in winter and summer, ...
