biome function

Calculate biomes statistics (TEOW) based on WWF

Calculate biomes statistics (TEOW) based on WWF

This function allows to efficiently retrieve the name of the biomes and compute the corresponding area from Terrestrial Ecoregions of the World (TEOW) - World Wildlife Fund (WWF) for polygons. For each polygon, the name and area of the biomes (in hectare) is returned. The required resources for this indicator are:

  • teow
calc_biome()

Returns

A function that returns an indicator tibble with variable biome type and corresponding area (in ha) as values.
