Table 1.

Table showing the origin of the data and the parameters used for ecological niche models (ENMs) for all study species in the Baltic Sea and their maximum distribution range. The table shows the total number of occurrence records before filtering, information on the species' biology from the literature, and the environmental layers selected. DL, distance to land (km); MD, maximum depth (m); SIC, sea ice concentration (30 arc-min); SSS, sea- surface salinity (psu); SST, sea-surface temperature (°C) (5 arc-min). All layers are mean annual values, except MD.
