Drylands - Percent of Total Area
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
The concept of drylands continues to be debated.
Description
In this data set, drylands are taken as areas with a potential hazard of desertification. The hyperarid zone is not subject to desertification and is therefore excluded.
Hence drylands are defined as the arid, semi-arid and dry subhumid zones, or areas with lengths of growing periods of 1-179 days.
