Welcome to DiadES Atlas

This is the home page of the Shiny application.

  • To close the welcome message, click on the top right “X”, or wherever out of the rectangle

  • Select your language on the very top right menu of the application
  • Target the question mark (?) near the titles and boxes with your mouse to get more information about the different sections.

Current distribution

The first page of the application shows the current presence of a chosen species distribution.

  • Click on the “Choose a species” menu to select a specific species to show. The map updates directly.

  • Click on the “Change map resolution” to show the distribution along ICES rectangles instead of divisions

  • The conservation status on the right refers to the selected species

  • The map is interactive and can be zoomed in or out

Ecosystem services

This page is a synthesis of ecosystem services rendered by studied species.

The table is empty by default. The user needs to choose among

  • one or multiple species in the list
  • one or multiple case studies by clicking on the polygons of the map
  • one or multiple ecosystem services in the list

… to show the valuations associated.

  • Click on “Show results” to let the table appear

  • The display of the table can be changed with the button selector below the table to show species as rows or colums

Effect of global warming

This page is to explore the simulations under global warming effect.

  • The user can choose
    • one of the species

    • one of the global warming scnarios

    • a specific year

  • Click on “Show results” to see the model outputs

The outputs are:

  • On the left: A map of the catchment suitability index (NIT) for the selected year
  • On the right: the simulation outputs for all years until 2100. The vertical red line corresponds to the selected year and a specific study area, hence the results on the map.
  • The user can chose to show another study area by clicking on the map. The selected area is then green on the map, and the titles of the figures change.

Effect of global change

The users can create their own simulations by defining custom indices for “anthropogenic mortalities”.

  • Choose one species
  • Choose one of the climatic scenarii
  • Define anthropogenic mortalities for both period and the chosen countries
    • Double click on a cell to edit its value

    • Click on top of the table to validate the value

  • Click on “Run the simulation”
    • This take a few seconds

All years and study areas have been simulated for the selexted species.

  • The user can choose a year to show the results on the map
  • The user can select a specific area by clicking on the polygon on the map
  • Titles of the outputs are modified according to user choice
