AI-generated Key Takeaways
-
These datasets offer global and pantropical maps of biomass carbon density, primarily focusing on aboveground biomass.
-
They utilize a variety of data sources, including remotely sensed imagery, field measurements, and LiDAR observations, to provide estimates at various spatial resolutions (30m, 300m, 500m).
-
One dataset specifically supports the IPCC's aboveground biomass estimation methodology for national greenhouse gas inventories.
-
The datasets cover different time periods, including a temporally consistent view for 2010 and forest classifications for 2020.
