Description
Summary:This repository contains spatial and tabular data central to the analysis reported by Walker et al. (2022) on the global potential for increased storage of carbon on land. All maps provided here are global (excluding Antarctica) in geographic scope at a spatial resolution of ca. 500 meters in the MODIS sinusoidal projection (SR-ORG:6842). Maps are stored individually as single-band GeoTIFFs. Grid cell units for carbon density maps are megagrams of carbon per hectare (MgC/ha). Water has been masked out as NoData (-32768). Associated computer code is available for download from https://github.com/whrc/Global-Potential-Carbon.
