Dry Matter Productivity (DMP) - Sentinel-3 - Africa

Dry matter Productivity (DMP) is an indication of the overall growth rate or dry biomass increase of the vegetation and is directly related to ecosystem Net Primary Productivity (NPP), however its units (kilograms of gross dry matter per hectare per day) are customized for agro-statistical purposes. Compared to the Gross DMP (GDMP), or its equivalent Gross Primary Productivity, the main difference lies in the inclusion of the autotrophic respiration.
