Derivation Of Plant Functional Type (Pft) Maps From The Esa Cci Land Cover Product

This package supplements the following paper submitted to ESSD: <strong>Gross and net land cover changes based on plant functional types derived from the annual ESA CCI land cover maps.</strong> This package contains the protocol of converting the original annual ESA CCI Land Cover product into plant functional types (PFTs) that can be used by land surface models and the corresponding cross-walking table. It also contains the original ESA LC class data and translated PFTs in 2000 as an example in the .zip file.
