Abstract:

The CoFor-AGB dataset is distributed as a four layers GeoTIFF file. The file projection system is World Mercator (EPSG: 3395). Layers’ information are provided below. Layer 1: Mean pixel AGB (in Mg.ha-1) Layer 2: Number of field plots within the pixel Layer 3: Mean date of plots inventory, expressed in fractional year Layer 4: Inter-plot variance (in Mg2.ha-2) Layer 5: Intra-plot variance (in Mg2.ha-2) See the associated Data Descriptor for details : Ploton et al., 2020, Scientific data. doi:10.1038/s41597-020-0561-0.
