Abstract
Ensemble projections of monthly surface habitat suitability indices (HSI; aka presence probabilities) based on three standard species distribution models (GLM, GAM and ANN) based on global presence data with a group-level target background for pseudoabsence data (full methodology described in Benedetti et al., 2021)

Supplemental Information
Caution: The species-level maps displayed here were used to estimate global species richness patterns which were: validated against previous findings whenever possible, peer-reviewed and published. However, please be aware that the individual species-level maps were not reviewed by independent experts and were mainly evaluated through common model skills metrics and visually examined by the lead author of the study (Dr. Fabio Benedetti). The species distribution models (SDMs) used here were designed to detect suitable environmental conditions based on the set of occurrences made available to the scientific community. As a result, some parts of the global ocean may show high habitat suitability values although the species modelled actually never occurs there due to a combination complex biotic and abiotic factors that could not be integrated in the SDMs. We have greater confidence in the overall richness patterns than in the species maps due to various biases and assumptions made in the SDMs framework. Please use the species-level maps with caution and consider the limitations associated with outputs seeming from SDMs.
