Global 2020 Forest Classification for IPCC Aboveground Biomass Tier 1 Estimates, V1
This dataset provides classes of global forests delineated by status/condition in 2020 at approximately 30m resolution. The data support generating Tier 1 estimates for Aboveground dry woody Biomass Density (AGBD) in natural forests in the 2019 Refinement to the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse … aboveground biomass carbon classification forest forest-biomass -
Global Aboveground and Belowground Biomass Carbon Density Maps
This dataset provides temporally consistent and harmonized global maps of aboveground and belowground biomass carbon density for the year 2010 at a 300-m spatial resolution. The aboveground biomass map integrates land-cover specific, remotely sensed maps of woody, grassland, cropland, and tundra biomass. Input maps were … aboveground biomass carbon density forest forest-biomass -
WHRC Pantropical National Level Carbon Stock Dataset
A national-level map of above-ground live woody biomass density for tropical countries at 500m. This dataset was assembled from a combination of co-located field measurements, LiDAR observations, and imagery recorded from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS). aboveground biomass carbon forest-biomass geophysical umd
