Global Forest Aboveground Carbon Stocks and Fluxes from GEDI and ICESat-2, 2018-2021
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR and NASA Data Portal — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.3334/ornldaac/2180
This dataset provides global gridded estimates of forest aboveground carbon stocks and potential fluxes at a 0.01-degree resolution.
Description
It was derived by initializing a newly developed global Ecosystem Demography model (ED v3.0) with novel remote sensing observations of tree canopy height collected by GEDI and ICESat-2, two NASA spaceborne lidar missions. A total of 3.77 billion lidar samples were used to generate gridded canopy height histograms that were then linked to ED simulations of canopy height and carbon dynamics during ecosystem succession.
This process constrained representation of contemporary forest conditions and associated carbon stocks and fluxes in the model. Inputs that drove these simulations included meteorology, carbon dioxide levels, and soil properties. The data are provided in cloud-optimized GeoTIFF format.
