Annual biomass data (2001-2021) for southern California: above- and below-ground, standing dead, and litter

USAGE NOTES The biomass raster layers are packaged in zip files for each year using the following naming structure: WWETAC_UCD_SoCal_Biomass_XXXX.zip Where XXXX is the year of the biomass estimates. Within each zip file are the following files: WWETAC_UCD_ <biomass pool>_XXXX_g_m2.tif Where <biomass pool> is either aboveground, standing dead, litter, or belowground and XXXX designates the year. The dimensions of the geotiff raster files is 21243 columns by 13618 rows and the bounding box coordinates are 36.79, -121.96 (upper left) and 32.47, -115.23 (lower right), in decimal degrees. The rasters are unprojected and in the WGS84 (WKID 4326) geographic coordinate system (decimal degrees). Pixel size is .000317 x .000317 decimal degrees, approximately 35m x 29m depending on latitude. Intended users of this dataset include resource managers, researchers who are carrying out biogeographic studies, and people needing vegetation biomass estimates across this landscape. This dataset is made available under a CC0 license waiver.
