This folder contains the figures included in chapter 2 of the IPBES thematic assessment of invasive alien species and their control. If possible, each figure is provided in png and pdf format. In addition, the R scripts and the data sets required to generate the figures and most tables are provided as well. The figures and tables showing information about alien species numbers or distributions are all based on two data sets, which are stored on Zenodo folders. One data set contains the records of alien species per region worldwide (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7554428) and the workflow including R scripts have been published (https://doi.org/10.3897/neobiota.59.53578). This data set is called the 'chapter database'. Version 2.4.1 of this data set was used to extract the numbers shown in figures and tables of this chapter. The second data set (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6458083) contains coordinates of alien species occurrences worldwide and the workflow including R scripts have also been published elsewhere (https://doi.org/10.3897/neobiota.74.81082). Version 1.0.1 of this data set was used here. The folder also contains the data management reports for the generation of the chapter database and figures.
