The unrealised potential of agroforestry (Maps of agro-climatic zones)

This dataset is part of a larger collection supporting the analysis in Becker et al., Nature Sustainability (2025) on the climate mitigation potential of cocoa agroforestry in West Africa. The full dataset is published via UQ eSpace as a series of interlinked records, each representing a different stage of the research workflow—from raw imagery to processed data products and analysis code.

This subset contains a GeoTIFF raster layer of agro-climatic zones (ACZ maps) covering Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire, derived from long-term climate data (1990–2020). These zones represent distinct agro-climatic types, each showing unique patterns of cocoa suitability across the region.
