Description
This dataset includes global rasters of terrestrial biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) rates (in kgN/(ha*y)) for each major N-fixing niche in natural biomes (trees, shrubs, herbs, soil, litter, dead wood, ground mosses, biocrusts, and epiphytic lichens) and agricultural biomes (legume crops, forage legumes, and rice). It also includes total natural terrestrial, total agricultural, and total terrestrial BNF rasters. The dataset contains rasters with central and confidence interval values at 0.004 and 1-degree resolution.
