Predicted soil organic carbon stock at 30 m in t/ha for 0-100 cm depth global / update of the map of mangrove forest soil carbon

This is an update of maps produced by Sanderman et al (2018). The improvements to the 3D spatial prediction include: new updated global mangrove coverage map (contact Thomas Worthington), new ALOS-based DEM of the world AW3D30 v18.04, new radar ALOS-based PALSAR radar images of the world, additional SOC points (ca 550) published in Rovai et al. (2018) used in model training (see gpkg file). To open map in QGIS or similar, drag and drop the "mangroves_dSOC_0_100cm_30m.vrt" file. You can than add also the gpkg file contain the training points. A preview (WMS) of the predictions is available here. Production steps (ensemble predictions using SuperLearner) are explained in detail at: R code: https://github.com/whrc/Mangrove-Soil-Carbon/ (see "R_code/GMW_mangroves_SOC_30m.R") Tutorial: "Predictive Soil Mapping with R" Produced for the purpose of Mangrove Restoration Potential Map funded by The Nature Conservancy and IUCN.
