Data Information

  History:
Tue Oct 28 13:48:23 2025: ncatted -a _FillValue,biomass,c,f,9.969209968386869e+36 biomass_0.5x0.5.nc

  Approach:
To convert the original data at 250m to the final one at 0.5x0.5 degree resolution, Please see conversion steps listed in http://redwood.ess.uci.edu/mingquan/www/ILAMB/Download/CODES/CODES/subroutines/convert/readme_biomass. 3 codes below will be used in these steps. Code 1: http://redwood.ess.uci.edu/mingquan/www/ILAMB/Download/CODES/CODES/subroutines/convert/read-US.Forest.pro Code 2: http://redwood.ess.uci.edu/mingquan/www/ILAMB/Download/CODES/CODES/subroutines/convert/convert-US.Forest.ncl Code 3: http://redwood.ess.uci.edu/mingquan/www/ILAMB/Download/CODES/CODES/subroutines/convert/write-US.Forest.ncl First, I used Code 1 to read data at 250m from the original geotiff file
then I used Code 2 to convert unit from the orignal unit of ton C per hectare to the final one of Kg C per m2, meanwhile I summed all available data points at 250m in each 0.5x0.5 grid cell to obtain the data at 0.5x0.5 degree resolution
finally I used Code 3 to create the final file in netCDF format.

  Temporal resolution:
yearly

  General information:
This product was derived from Forest Biomass across the Lower 48 States and Alaska originally in a raster format at 250m.

  Spatial resolution:
0.5x0.5 degree
