Data for: Carbon sequestration potential of forest vegetation in China from 2003 to 2050: Predicting forest vegetation growth based on climate and environment

According to China's forest resources situation, this study used NFI-measured data of 7,801 sample plots in 2003, 2008 and 2013 (tree species, diameter at breast height (DBH), tree volume, average age, latitude, longitude, altitude, annual average rainfall, annual average temperature, gradient, slope direction, slope position, and soil thickness) and forest ecosystem biomass data (longitude, latitude, altitude, average annual temperature, average annual rainfall, forest origin, species composition, average age, average DBH, average tree height, forest density, forest volume, arborous layer biomass, undergrowth layer biomass, herbaceous layer biomass, undergrowth vegetation biomass, and dead plant biomass).
