The compiled data underlie a synthesis of recent and future climate effects on ecosystem service supply, demand, and monetary value. By integrating information from recent publications, the data spreadsheet and associated synthesis update and extend previous literature reviews (particularly, Runting et al., 2017). The data spreadsheet also represents a literature library of climate impacts on ecosystem services, which can be aggregated or disaggregated by study areas and methodologies, ecosystem service features and interactions, climate and non-climate driver interactions, uncertainty assessment approaches, and decision-making implications. Research gaps discerned from the data (e.g., described in the synthesis paper) can inform crucial directions for future studies. In addition to supporting analyses that yield valuable summaries for practitioners (e.g., managers, decision-makers, planners), this literature library can be a source of context-relevant case studies for ensuring continued flows of nature’s benefits to people in an uncertain and changing climate.
