Kim & Koo's data for "Estimating the 15th-century potential habitats of endangered mammals on the Korean Peninsula: Implications for restoration" in Ecology and Evolution

The datasets include the map of eight administrative provinces of the Korean Peninsula (Figure 2) and the map of 275 districts with mammal-related tributes in the 1400s (Figure 2) identified from the Sejong Sillok Jiriji, the number of districts and names of districts for each province (Table A1 in the Appendix), tribute-based habitat maps (Figure 3), and the number of districts and the names of districts in each province of each mammal (Table A2-5 in the Appendix). All GIS maps and metadata presented in this study will be made available upon reasonable request. Access to these datasets will facilitate further research and understanding of the impacts of environmental and land-use changes on endangered mammal species.
