Map of Aboveground Biomass and Uncertainty of Haloxylon in the Ancient Manas Lake Basin Area, Western Junggar Basin, Xinjiang, China

This dataset is the research outcome of the National Natural Science Foundation of China  project "Spatiotemporal Evolution and Attribution of Haloxylon Aboveground Biomass in the Junggar Basin under the Background of Climate Change" (Grant No.42261062) and the Natural Science Foundation of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China  project "Remote Sensing Technology for Acquiring Aboveground Biomass of Haloxylon Forests in the Ancient Manas Lake Basin Sedimentary Area" (Grant No.2022D01A97). It reflects the map of aboveground biomass and uncertainty of Haloxylon in the ancient Manas Lake basin area, western Junggar Basin. The data is in tif format, with a coordinate system of UTM 45N and a resolution of 30 meters. It contains three bands, namely "AGB", "Uncertainty", and "AOA", representing "Haloxylon Aboveground Biomass", "Uncertainty of Haloxylon Aboveground Biomass", and "Areas of Applicability and Non-applicability".
