Simulated above ground biomass of forests (larch) aggregated over the vicinity of the Ilirney lake system region, Chukotka, Russia

The model LAVESI (Kruse et al. 2016) was updated (Kruse 2023) and forced with historical and future climate forcing for 3 simulation repeats. The data set contains simulated larch above ground biomass (AGB, in kg m-2) for the three climate forcings RCP 2.6, 4.5 and 8.5 and each complemented with a hypothetical cooling scenario from year 2300 CE onwards. The data provided is from years 1800, 1860, 1900, 1990, 2000 and in 5-year steps until 3000 CE and presents the mean over the three repeats of the sum of AGB of the whole study region: extent: 640008.2, 649998.2, 7475006, 7494716 m (xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax).

This data set is related to the data set of Kruse (2023).

Format: csv, with headers 1-year, Year in CE, 2-average, mean AGB, in kg m-2 for the study region, 3-upper and 4-lower, is the minimum and maximum value of the three simulations, 5-RCP, is the RCP scenario, 6-Cooling, contains in case of the cooling scenario the string “Cooling”.
