Land Use and Land Cover Change Projection in the ABoVE Domain

Description

This dataset provides projections of land use and land cover (LULC) change within the Arctic Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE) domain, spanning from 2015 to 2100 with a spatial resolution of 0.25 degrees. It includes LULC change under two Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP126 and SSP585) derived from Global Change Analysis Model (GCAM) at an annual scale. The specific land types include: needleleaf evergreen tree-temperate, needleleaf evergreen tree-boreal, needleleaf deciduous tree-boreal, broadleaf evergreen tree-tropical, broadleaf evergreen tree-temperate, broadleaf deciduous tree-tropical, broadleaf deciduous tree-temperate, broadleaf deciduous tree-boreal, broadleaf evergreen shrub-temperate, broadleaf deciduous shrub-temperate, broadleaf deciduous shrub-boreal, C3 arctic grass, C3 grass, C4 grass, and C3 unmanaged rainfed crop. The data were generated by integrating regional LULC projections from GCAM with high-resolution MODIS land cover data and applying two alternative spatial downscaling models: FLUS and Demeter. Data are provided in NetCDF format.

34 The spatial pattern of land use land cover (LULC) using FLUS (a, d, g, j) and Demeter (b, e, h, l) downscaling in 2100 for Shared Socioeconomic Pathway SSP126 and historical LULC in 2015 (c, f, i, l). The study area covers the ABoVE domain, and maps display the four dominant land cover types: (a-c) needleleaf evergreen boreal tree, (d-f) broadleaf deciduous boreal tree, (g-i) broadleaf deciduous boreal shrub, and (j-l) C3 arctic grass. The color blue (red) represents a small (large) area fraction of a specific land type. https://daac.ornl.gov/ABOVE/guides/ABoVE_Domain_Projected_LULC_Fig1.png
