Global mangroves accumulated carbon storage from 2000 to 2020

This dataset captures global mangrove accumulated carbon storage at a 1 km resolution from 2000 to 2020 and is publicly available in single-band GeoTIFF format with World Mercator projection.The data follow standardized naming convention: ‘input_name_yr.tif’, ‘process_name_yr.tif’, and ‘out-put_name_yr.tif’. Regarding these file names, ‘input’ refers to the prepared input data; ‘process’ represents intermediary data generated during calculations; ‘output’ means the results of this study; ‘Name’ indicates the data type, and ‘yr’ specifies the year of the data.For instance, ‘input_agb_2000.tif’ corresponds to the 1 km resolution global above-ground biomass data for mangroves in the year 2000 from Simard et al. (2019); ‘process_G_0007.tif’ represents the total cumulative biomass of global mangroves from 2000 to 2007 at a 1 km resolution; ‘output_carbon_0020.tif’ represents the output of this study in terms of the 2000–2020 global mangrove accumulated carbon storage at a 1 km resolution.The following citation should be used for the metadata source:Giri, C. et al.
