We provide models in html format (MaxEnt outputs) and raster format (ASC) for 7 Ethiopian vegetation types to analyse the relationship between current potential vegetation distribution in Ethiopia and current climate. The climatic variables used are: mean annual temperature, maximum temperature of warmest month, minimum temperature of coldest month, mean temperature of wettest quarter, mean temperature of driest quarter, mean annual precipitation, precipitation of wettest month, precipitation of driest month and precipitation of warmest quarter.

Additionally, in shape files, we provide maps of vegetation distribution in Ethiopia for 22 time slices since the Last Glacial Maximum with and without consideration of the impact of CO2 on vegetation.

More information on how the models were produced and interpretation of the results can be found in the original publication: Cooling-induced expansions of Afromontane forests in the Horn of Africa since the Last Glacial Maximum.
