The model LAVESI (Kruse et al. 2016) was updated (Kruse 2023) and forced with historical and future climate forcing for 3 simulation repeats. The data set contains simulated larch above ground biomass (AGB, in kg m-2) for the three climate forcings RCP 2.6, 4.5 and 8.5 and each complemented with a hypothetical cooling scenario from year 2300 CE onwards. The data provided is from years 2020, 2050, 2100 and proceeding in 100-year steps until 3000 CE. Format: Geotiff; projection UTM58N and 30x30 m tiles; extent: 640008.2, 649998.2, 7475006, 7494716 m (xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax) This work has been supported by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), which enabled the Russian-German research programme "Kohlenstoff im Permafrost KoPf" (grant no. 03F0764A), by the Initiative and Networking Fund of the Helmholtz Association and by the ERC consolidator grant Glacial Legacy of Ulrike Herzschuh (grant no. 772852).
