Spatial and temporal distribution of biomass in dense regions of Tianshan spruce in Xinjiang, 2002-2017

They play an important role in regulating global carbon balance and slowing down the rise of greenhouse gas concentrations. Tianshan spruce, as an important forest resource in Xinjiang, has significant ecological and economic value.

Constructing its biomass spatiotemporal dataset can provide basic data for the assessment of regional carbon sequestration potential, and provide scientific basis for the protection and sustainable management of Tianshan spruce forests. The dataset includes text data and image data, among which Excel text data collects the structural data of the dense area of Xinjiang Tianshan spruce in 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017 for each sample plot; Grid image data includes terrain data such as altitude, remote sensing data such as normalized vegetation index, meteorological data such as annual average precipitation, annual average runoff depth, annual average easterly wind speed, and biomass distribution map of spruce dense areas.
