Description

This dataset provides gridded estimates of aboveground biomass (AGB) for live dry woody vegetation density in the form of both stock for the baseline year 2003 and annual change in stock from 2003 to 2016. Data are at a spatial resolution of approximately 500 m (463.31 m; 21.47 ha) for three geographies: the biogeographical limit of the Amazon Basin, the country of Mexico, and a Pantropical belt from 40 degrees North to 30 degrees South latitudes. Estimates were derived from a multi-step modeling approach that combined field measurements with co-located LiDAR data from NASA ICESat Geoscience Laser Altimeter System (GLAS) to calibrate a machine-learning (ML) algorithm that generated spatially explicit annual estimates of AGB density. ML inputs included a suite of satellite and ancillary spatial predictor variables compiled as wall-to-wall raster mosaics, including MODIS products, WorldClim climate variables reflecting current (1960-1990) climatic conditions, and SoilGrids soil variables. The 14-year time series was analyzed at the grid cell (~500 m) level with a change point-fitting algorithm to quantify annual losses and gains in AGB. Estimates of AGB and change can be used to derive total losses, gains, and the net change in aboveground carbon density over the study period as well as annual estimates of carbon stock.

Salt_Marsh_Biomass_CONUS_2348

This dataset provides estimates of aboveground biomass (AGB) and salt marsh extent in the contiguous United States for 2020 and includes all coastal watersheds across the contiguous United States at 10-m resolution.

Salt marsh extent was classified using an ensemble of XGBoost, random forests, and support vector machines, trained with salt marsh location identified with the National Wetland Inventory (NWI). The data are organized by Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) 6-digit basin. Within each HUC, the spatial extent of salt marsh and its uncertainty were estimated by machine learning and input data from NWI maps, the National Elevation Dataset, along with Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 imagery. Estimates were compared to in situ biomass data from salt marshes in Georgia and Massachusetts. The data are provided in cloud-optimized GeoTIFF format.

Plots included permanent inventory plots around existing flux towers and additional plots to ensure representation of various forest conditions. Each plot had a radius of 7.98 m. In addition, leaf-off airborne LiDAR data were collected by the USGS 3DEP project in 2012, 2015, and 2023, and leaf-on data were obtained from the NASA G-LiHT project for 2017 and 2021. The LANDIS-II forest landscape model along with its Biomass Succession extension was used to simulate ecosystem dynamics in Howland Forest. Then, a random forest (RF) model was used to generate wall-to-wall biomass maps for the research forest from the LiDAR data. The RF model was calibrated from in situ AGB measurements from plots and simulated AGB values for the LiDAR acquisition years. Howland Research Forest is a low-elevation transitional forest dominated by spruce and hemlock, with conifer and northern hardwood species. The data are provided in cloud optimized GeoTIFF format.

The estimates were derived from a water transport model, the Model for Scale Adaptive River Transport (MOSART), coupled with the Dynamic Land Ecosystem Model (DLEM) to link hydrology and ecosystem processes pertaining to N2O flux and transport. Factors driving the model included climate, land use and land cover, and nitrogen inputs (i.e., fertilizer, deposition, manure, and sewage). Nitrogen discharges from streams and rivers to the ocean were calibrated from observations from 50 river basins across the globe.

Atmospheric_CO2_California_1641

This dataset provides measurements of atmospheric CO2 concentrations, carbon isotopes d13C and D14C, and fossil fuel CO2 (ffCO2) estimates from nine observation sites in California over three month-long campaigns in separate seasons of 2014-2015. ffCO2 was quantified based on the CO2 concentration and D14C. Simulations of ffCO2 at the sites and times of the observations were conducted with the Vulcan v2.2 fossil fuel emissions estimate for 2002 and the Weather Research and Forecasting - Stochastic Time-Inverted Lagrangian Transport (WRF-STILT) atmospheric model. The observed and simulated ffCO2 were incorporated into Bayesian inverse estimates of ffCO2 to calculate California's ffCO2 emissions during the campaign period.

Spatial models of prior CH4 emissions and natural gas consumption are given for an ~18,000 km^2 area centered on Boston, MA.

CMS_Global_Cropland_Carbon_1279

This data set provides global estimates of carbon fluxes associate with annual crop net primary production (NPP) and harvested biomass, annual uptake and release by humans and livestock, and the total annual estimate of net carbon exchange (NCE) derived from these carbon fluxes. NCE estimates are for the combined crop plant harvest and consumption/expiration of fodder by livestock and of food by humans. Estimation of carbon uptake and release from global agricultural production and consumption required compilation and analysis of inventory data from various sources for the years 2005-2011. The flux estimates were spatially distributed to a global 0.05-degree resolution grid using MODIS land cover data. The quantities of carbon flux in each gridcell are represented in two ways: (1) where the quantities of carbon distributed to each gridcell were divided by the total gridcell area, resulting in average carbon fluxes per unit of total area (g C/m2/yr), and (2), where annual carbon fluxes associated with a source were summed over all types for the gridcell (Mg C/yr). The total surface area of the grid cells is provided. There are eight data files in netCDF format (.nc4) with this data set -- two files (per area and per gridcell) for each of the four flux source types. Data for all years are in each .nc4 file.

CMS_WRF_Footprints_CO2_Signals_1381

This data set provides estimated CO2 emission signals for 16 regions (air quality basins) in California, USA, during the individual months of November 2010 and May 2011. The CO2 signals were predicted from simulated atmospheric CO2 observations and modeled fossil fuel emissions and biosphere CO2 fluxes. Data is also provided for the land surface in the larger modeling domain outside California. CO2 signals refer to the local enhancement or depletion in atmospheric CO2 concentration caused by fossil fuel emissions or biospheric exchange occurring within the region.

GPP_CONUS_TROPOMI_1875

This dataset includes estimates of gross primary production (GPP) for the conterminous U.S., for 2018-02-15 to 2021-10-15, based on measurements of solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence from the TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) on the Sentinel-5P satellite platform. GPP was estimated from rates of photosynthesis inferred from SIF using a linear model and ecosystem scaling factors from 102 AmeriFlux sites. Knowledge of the spatiotemporal patterns of GPP is necessary for understanding regional and global carbon budgets. Broad-scale estimates of GPP have typically relied upon carbon cycle models linking spatial patterns of vegetation with remotely sensed environmental data. SIF provides a means to directly estimate photosynthetic activity, and therefore, GPP. Recent deployments of satellite platforms that measure SIF provide near-real-time measurements and represent a breakthrough in measuring GPP on a global scale. Regular SIF measurements can detect spatially explicit ecosystem-level responses to climate events such as drought and flooding. This dataset includes spatially explicit estimates of GPP (g m-2 d-1), uncertainty in GPP, and related TROPOMI SIF measurements (mW m-2 sr-1 nm-1) at 500-m resolution. The data are provided in NetCDF format.

For the conterminous USA, the GCAM global gridded results were downscaled to 5.6 km (0.05 degree) resolution. For each 5.6 x 5.6 km area, the annual land cover percentage comprised by each of the nineteen different land cover classes/plant functional types (PFTs) of the Community Land Model (CLM) (Table 1) are provided. Results are reported for GCAM runs of three scenarios of future human efforts towards climate mitigation as related to global carbon emissions, radiative forcing, and land cover change. Specific scenario conditions were 1) a reference scenario with no explicit climate mitigation efforts that reaches a radiative forcing level of over 7 W/m2 in 2100, 2) the 2.6 mitigation pathway (MP) scenario which is a very low emission scenario with a mid-century peak in radiative forcing at ~3 W/m2, declining to 2.6 W/m2 in 2100, and 3) the 4.5 MP scenario which stabilizes radiative forcing at 4.5 W/m2 ( 650 ppm CO2-equivalent) before 2100. These downscaled land cover projections can be used to derive spatially explicit estimates of potential shifts in croplands, grasslands, shrub lands, and forest lands in each future climate scenario. Data are presented as three NetCDF v4 files (.nc4), one for each future climate scenario -- 2.6 MP, 4.5 MP, and GCAM reference).

Landcover_Colombian_Amazon_1783

Annual maps of land cover were created for each Landsat scene and then post-processed and mosaicked. Land cover types include unclassified, forest, natural grasslands, urban, pastures, secondary forest, water, or highly reflective surfaces. The training data are not included with this dataset.

Sonoma_County_Forest_AGB_1764

This data set provides estimates of above-ground woody biomass and uncertainty at 30-m spatial resolution for Sonoma County, California, USA, for the nominal year 2013. Biomass estimates, megagrams of biomass per hectare (Mg/ha), were generated using a combination of airborne LiDAR data and field plot measurements with a parametric modeling approach. The relationship between field estimated and airborne LiDAR estimated aboveground biomass density is represented as a parametric model that predicts biomass as a function of canopy cover and 50th percentile and 90th percentile LiDAR heights at a 30-m resolution. To estimate uncertainty, the biomass model was re-fit 1,000 times through a sampling of the variance-covariance matrix of the fitted parametric model. This produced 1,000 estimates of biomass per pixel. The 5th and 95th percentiles, and the standard deviation of these pixel biomass estimates, were calculated.

CMS_Great_Basin_Biomass_1755

This dataset provides annual maps of live aboveground tree biomass (Mg/ha) for pinyon-juniper forests across the Great Basin of the Western USA for the years 2000-2016 at a spatial resolution of 30 meters. Biomass estimates are limited to areas of the Great Basin defined as a pinyon-juniper ecosystem type by the 2016 Landfire Existing Vegetation Type map. The estimates of biomass were based on a linear relationship with pinyon-juniper canopy cover and crown-based allometrics developed from field data in Nevada and Idaho. Canopy cover was estimated from remote sensing by using annual composites of Landsat imagery, which were temporally segmented with the LandTrendr algorithm, along with biologically-relevant climate variables, and topographic indices in a Random Forest regression model. Models of canopy cover were trained from semi-automatic extraction of tree crowns from 2011 - 2013 high resolution imagery (1 m) from the National Agriculture Imagery Program, which were validated with photo interpretation. Maps of the standard deviation of biomass estimates from decision trees in the Random Forest model are provided as an indicator of uncertainty.

This dataset contains estimates of tree canopy cover presence at high resolution (0.5m) across the state of Vermont for 2016 in Cloud-Optimized GeoTIFF (.tif) format. Tree canopy was derived from 2016 high-resolution remotely sensed data as part of the Vermont High-Resolution Land Cover mapping project. Object-based image analysis techniques (OBIA) were employed to extract potential tree canopy and trees using the best available remotely sensed and vector GIS datasets. OBIA systems work by grouping pixels into meaningful objects based on their spectral and spatial properties, while taking into account boundaries imposed by existing vector datasets. Within the OBIA environment a rule-based expert system was designed to effectively mimic the process of manual image analysis by incorporating the elements of image interpretation (color/tone, texture, pattern, location, size, and shape) into the classification process. A series of morphological procedures were employed to ensure that the end product is both accurate and cartographically pleasing. Following the automated OBIA mapping a detailed manual review of the dataset was carried out at a scale of 1:3000 and all observable errors were corrected. Tree canopy assessments have been conducted for numerous communities throughout the U.S. where the results have been instrumental in helping to establish tree canopy goals.

This dataset contains four alternative digital elevation models (DEMs) at 1 m resolution and model performance statistical metrics for the Global Change Research Wetland (GCReW) site on the Rhode River, a tributary of the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland, USA, for the year 2016. Three DEMs were created by using different strategies for correcting positive biases in Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR)-based DEMs that are common in tidal wetlands. These included (1) applying a single average offset based on a literature review, (2) using the LiDAR Elevation Correction with NDVI (LEAN)-method, and (3) applying plant community-specific offsets using a local vegetation cover map. Existing LiDAR data at 1 m resolution collected in 2011 was the basis for these DEMs. The fourth DEM was created by using Empirical Bayesian Kriging to extrapolate between measured ground points. The elevation is provided in meters relative to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). To calibrate the four approaches, the elevation of the entire marsh complex was surveyed at 20 m x 20 m resolution to document the distribution of elevation relative to tidal datums from a single year. Two Trimble R8 real-time kinematic (RTK) GPS receivers were used to survey 525 points over the complex from July 26, 2016, to August 15, 2016. Relative plant cover was also documented. Tidal datums were calculated from the nearby Annapolis, MD tidal gauge located 13 km from GCReW.

Disturbance_Biomass_Maps_1679

This dataset provides derived disturbance history and predicted annual forest biomass maps at 30-m resolution for six selected Landsat scenes across the Conterminous United States (CONUS) for the period 1985-2014.

This dataset characterizes the global distribution, biomass, and canopy height of mangrove-forested wetlands based on remotely sensed and in situ field measurement data. Estimates of (1) mangrove aboveground biomass (AGB), (2) maximum canopy height (height of the tallest tree), and (3) basal-area weighted height (individual tree heights weighted in proportion to their basal area) for the nominal year 2000 were derived across a 30-meter resolution global mangrove ecotype extent map using remotely-sensed canopy height measurements and region-specific allometric models. Also provided are (4) in situ field measurement data for selected sites across a wide variety of forest structures (e.g., scrub, fringe, riverine and basin) in mangrove ecotypes of the global equatorial region. Within designated plots, selected trees were identified to species and diameter at breast height (DBH) and tree height was measured using a laser rangefinder or clinometer. Tree density (the number of stems) can be estimated for each plot and expressed per unit area. These data were used to derive plot-level allometry among AGB, basal area weighted height (Hba), and maximum canopy height (Hmax) and to validate the remotely sensed estimates.

Tidal wetlands are a critical component of global climate regulation. Tidal wetland-based carbon, or "blue carbon," is a valued resource that is increasingly important for restoration and conservation purposes.

SIF_PAR_fPAR_US_Midwest_2018_1813

This dataset provides estimated solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) of specific vegetation types and total SIF under clear-sky and real/cloudy conditions at a resolution of 4 km for the Midwest USA. The estimates are 8-day averaged daily means over the 2018 crop growing season for the time period 2018-05-01 to 2018-09-29. SIF of a specific vegetation type (i.e., corn, soybean, grass/pasture, forest) was expressed as the product of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), the fraction of photosynthetically active radiation absorbed by the canopy (fPAR), and canopy SIF yield (SIFyield) for each vegetation type. Uncertainty of each variable was also calculated and is provided. These components of the SIF model were derived using a TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) dataset, the USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service Cropland Data Layer, and the MODIS MCD15A2H 8-day 500 m fPAR product. These data could be used to improve estimates of vegetation productivity and vegetation stress.

CMS_HR_MNA_CH4_FLUX

This data set contains estimates of methane emission in North America based on an inversion of the GEOS-Chem chemical transport model constrained by Greenhouse Gases Observing SATellite (GOSAT) observations. The NASA Carbon Monitoring System (CMS) is designed to make significant contributions in characterizing, quantifying, understanding, and predicting the evolution of global carbon sources and sinks through improved monitoring of carbon stocks and fluxes.

CMS_Landcover_Indonesia_1838

This dataset contains annual land use/cover (LUC) maps at 30 m resolution across Mawas, Central Kalimantan, Indonesia. There are six files, each representing a five-year interval over the period 1994-2019. An additional file for 2015 was created for accuracy assessment. A high-quality and low-cloud coverage image from Landsat 5 or Landsat 8 over each 5-year period was selected or composited for the January-August timeframe. Investigators used their knowledge to manually identify training polygons in these images for five LUC classes: peat swamp forest, tall shrubs/ secondary forest, low shrubs/ferns/grass, urban/bare land/open flooded areas, and river. Pixel values of Landsat Tier 1 surface reflectance products and selected indices were extracted for each LUC and used to predict LUC classes across the Mawas study area using the Classification and Regression Trees (CART) method. These data can be used to evaluate the relationship between fire occurrence and land cover type in the study site.

Estimated_Biomass_Stock_Amazon_1648

This dataset provides estimates of forest aboveground biomass for three study areas and the entire Paragominas municipality, in Para, Brazil, in 2012. Aboveground biomass (in megagrams of carbon per hectare) was measured for inventory plots within the study (focal) areas, and then assimilated and modeled with LiDAR and PALSAR metrics using gradient boosting machines (GBM) to predict spatially explicit forest aboveground biomass and uncertainties for the entire focal areas. The PALSAR data across the three focal areas was combined and used in a GBM model to predict forest aboveground biomass across the entire Paragominas municipality.

CMS_LiDAR_Biomass_MD_PA_DE_1538

This dataset provides 30-meter gridded estimates of aboveground biomass (AGB), forest canopy height, and canopy coverage for Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Delaware in 2011. Leaf-off LiDAR data were combined with high-resolution leaf-on agricultural imagery in a model-based stratification that was used to select 848 sampling sites for AGB estimation. Field-based estimates were then related to LiDAR height and volume metrics through random forest regression models across three physiographic regions. Spatial errors were estimated at the pixel level using standard prediction intervals to assess the accuracy of the modeling approach. Estimates of biomass were further validated against the permanent network of FIA plots and compared with existing coarse resolution national biomass maps.

AGB_CanopyHt_Cover_NewEngland_1854

This dataset provides 30 m gridded estimates of aboveground biomass density (AGBD), forest canopy height, and tree canopy coverage for the New England Region of the U.S., including the state of Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island, for the nominal year 2015. It is based on inputs from 1 m resolution Leaf-off LiDAR data collected from 2010 through 2015, high-resolution leaf-on agricultural imagery, and FIA plot-level measurements. Canopy height and tree cover were derived directly from LiDAR data while AGBD was estimated by statistical models that link remote sensing data and FIA plots at the pixel level. Error in AGBD was calculated at the 90% confidence interval. This approach can directly contribute to the formation of a cohesive forest carbon accounting system at national and even international levels, especially via future integrations with NASA's spaceborne LiDAR missions.

Forest_AGB_NW_USA_1766

This dataset provides maps of aboveground forest biomass (AGB) of living trees and standing dead trees in Mg/ha across portions of Northwestern United States, including Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Montana, at a spatial resolution of 30 m. Forest inventory data were compiled from 29 stakeholders that had overlapping lidar imagery. The collection totaled 3805 field plots with lidar imagery for 176 collections acquired between 2002 and 2016. Plot-level AGB estimates were calculated from tree measurements using the default allometric equations found in the Fire Fuels Extension (FFE) of the Forest Vegetation Simulator (FVS). The random forest algorithm was used to model AGB from lidar height and density metrics that were generated from the lidar returns within fixed-radius field plot footprints, gridded climate metrics obtained from the Climate-FVS Ready Data Server, and topographic estimates extracted from Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) 1 Arc-Second Global elevation rasters. AGB was then mapped from the same lidar metrics gridded across the extent of the lidar collections at 30-m resolution. The standard deviation of estimated AGB of the terminal nodes from the random forest predictions was also mapped to show pixel-level model uncertainty. Note that the AGB estimates are, for the most part, a single snapshot in time and that the forest conditions are not necessarily representative of the larger study area.

LiDAR_Forest_Inventory_Brazil_1644

This dataset provides the complete catalog of point cloud data collected during LiDAR surveys over selected forest research sites across the Amazon rainforest in Brazil between 2008 and 2018 for the Sustainable Landscapes Brazil Project.

CH4_Plume_AVIRIS-NG_1727

This dataset provides maps of methane (CH4) plumes along flight lines over identified methane point-source emitting infrastructure across the State of California, USA collected during 2016 and 2017. Methane plume locations were derived from Next-Generation Airborne Visible Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS-NG) overflights during the California Methane Survey. The survey was designed to cover at least 60% of the methane point source infrastructure in California guided by the Vista-CA dataset of identified locations of potential methane emitting facilities and infrastructure in three primary sectors (energy, agriculture, and waste). The purpose of the survey was to detect, quantify, and attribute point source emissions to specific infrastructure elements to improve the scientific understanding of regional methane budgets and to inform policy and planning activities that reduce methane emissions.

MICASA_FLUX_3H

MiCASA is an extensive revision of CASA-GFED3. CASA-GFED3 derives from Potter et al. (1993), diverging in development since Randerson et al. (1996). CASA is a light use efficiency model: NPP is expressed as the product of photosynthetically active solar radiation, a light use efficiency parameter, scalars that capture temperature and moisture limitations, and fractional absorption of photosynthetically active radiation (fPAR) by the vegetation canopy derived from satellite data. Fire parameterization was incorporated into the model by van der Werf et al. (2004) leading to CASA-GFED3 after several revisions (van der Werf et al., 2006, 2010). Development of the GFED module has continued, now at GFED5 (Chen et al., 2023) with less focus on the CASA module. MiCASA diverges from GFED development at version 3, although future reconciliation is possible. Input datasets include air temperature, precipitation, incident solar radiation, a soil classification map, and several satellite derived products. These products are primarily based on Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Terra and Aqua combined datasets including land cover classification (MCD12Q1), burned area (MCD64A1), Nadir BRDF-Adjusted Reflectance (NBAR; MCD43A4), from which fPAR is derived, and tree/herbaceous/bare vegetated fractions from Terra only (MOD44B). Emissions due to fire and burning of coarse woody debris (fuel wood) are estimated separately.

SLOPE_GPP_CONUS_1786

This dataset contains estimated gross primary productivity (GPP), photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), soil adjusted near infrared reflectance of vegetation (SANIRv), the fraction of C4 crops in vegetation (fC4), and their uncertainties for the conterminous United States (CONUS) from 2000 to 2019. The daily estimates are SatelLite Only Photosynthesis Estimation (SLOPE) products at 250-m resolution. There are three distinct features of the GPP estimation algorithm: (1) SLOPE couples machine learning models with MODIS atmosphere and land products to accurately estimate PAR, (2) SLOPE couples gap-filling and filtering algorithms with surface reflectance acquired by both Terra and Aqua MODIS satellites to derive a soil-adjusted NIRv (SANIRv) dataset, and (3) SLOPE couples a temporal pattern recognition approach with a long-term Crop Data Layer (CDL) product to predict dynamic C4 crop fraction. PAR, SANIRv and C4 fraction are used to drive a parsimonious model with only two parameters to estimate GPP, along with a quantitative uncertainty, on a per-pixel and daily basis. The slope GPP product has an R2 = 0.84 and a root-mean-square error (RMSE) of 1.65 gC m-2 d-1.

NASMo_TiAM_250m_2326

This NASMo-TiAM (North America Soil Moisture Dataset Derived from Time-Specific Adaptable Machine Learning Models) dataset holds gridded estimates of surface soil moisture (0-5 cm depth) at a spatial resolution of 250 meters over 16-day intervals from mid-2002 to December 2020 for North America. The model employed Random Forests to downscale coarse-resolution soil moisture estimates (0.25 deg) from the European Space Agency Climate Change Initiative (ESA CCI) based on their correlation with a set of static (terrain parameters, bulk density) and dynamic covariates (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, land surface temperature). NASMo-TiAM 250m predictions were evaluated through cross-validation with ESA CCI reference data and independent ground-truth validation using North American Soil Moisture Database (NASMD) records. The data are provided in cloud optimized GeoTIFF format.

BGC_glider_GNATS

This dataset contains ocean biogeochemistry data from two Slocum gliders along the Gulf of Maine North Atlantic Time Series (GNATS) transect. The transect runs approximately east-west, with only a very minor change in latitude. The gliders are deployed on the western end of the transect, travel along the transect line to the eastern end, turn around and travel back along the transect to the western end, before being recovered. Each file contains data from one deployment (a glider “mission”), and thus contains both an eastbound and a westbound measurement of each variable. A full mission takes approximately 20 – 30 days. The data are gridded by longitude (0.01° intervals) and depth (1 m intervals). For more details on dataset preparation, see the Original Publication Citation and Data Processing Workflow below.

CMS_OCE_BGC_CCS

A coupled physical-biogeochemical ocean model (the MITgcm with BLING biogeochemistry) is a least squares fit to all available ocean observations in the region of the California Current System. This is accomplished iteratively through the adjoint method, using the methodology developed by the Consortium for Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean (ECCO). The result is a physically realistic estimate of the ocean state. The model domain extends from 28N to 40N and from 130W to 114W. It has a 1/16-degree horizontal resolution (~7km) and 72 vertical levels. The NASA Carbon Monitoring System (CMS) is designed to make significant contributions in characterizing, quantifying, understanding, and predicting the evolution of global carbon sources and sinks through improved monitoring of carbon stocks and fluxes. The System will use the full range of NASA satellite observations and modeling/analysis capabilities to establish the accuracy, quantitative uncertainties, and utility of products for supporting national and international policy, regulatory, and management activities.

Coastal_US_Elevation_Data_1844

This dataset provides maps of the elevation of coastal wetlands relative to tidal ranges for the conterminous United States (CONUS) at 30 m resolution for 2010. It also includes maps of tidal amplitude, relative sea-level rise for the period 1983-2001, and maps for coastal lands and low marsh areas based on the probability of being below the mean higher high tide water line for spring tides (MHHWS). Uncertainty layers for elevation maps are also provided.

CMS_Coastal_Wetland_Resilience_1839

This dataset provides information about the resilience of tidal wetlands to sea-level rise under three scenarios of global change. With rising seas, regularly inundated tidal wetlands may persist by vertical accretion of sediments (vertical resilience) and/or by migrating inland (lateral resilience), but local and regional conditions constrain these options. This dataset provides a vertical resilience index (VR) for coastal wetlands at 30 m resolution across the continental US predicted for 2100. The VR index was computed for current sea levels, local tidal dynamics, and coastal topography. It was also calculated for future sea levels predicted for 2100 by three IPCC Realized Concentration Pathway (RCP) scenarios: 2.5, 4.5, and 8.5. Moreover, the VR index incorporates estimated rates of sediment accretion. Relevant to lateral resiliency, the data include current and future tidal areas identified by mapping mean higher high water spring tide locations under the RCP scenarios. A shapefile outlining watershed units with tidal wetlands is included along with land cover classes for these areas for 1996 and 2011.

SatelliteDerived_Forest_Mexico_2320

This dataset provides a comparison of forest extent agreement from seven remote sensing-based products across Mexico. These satellite-derived products include European Space Agency 2020 Land Cover Map for Mexico (ESA), Globeland30 2020 (Globeland30), Commission for Environmental Cooperation 2015 Land Cover Map (CEC), Impact Observatory 2020 Land Cover Map (IO), NAIP Trained Mean Percent Cover Map (NEX-TC), Global Land Analysis and Discovery Global 2010 Tree Cover (Hansen-TC), and Global Forest Cover Change Tree Cover 30 m Global (GFCC-TC). All products included data at 10-30 m resolution and represented the state of forest or tree cover from 2010 to 2020. These seven products were chosen based on: a) feedback from end-users in Mexico; b) availability and FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, and replicable) data principles; and c) products representing different methodological approaches from global to regional scales. The combined agreement map documents forest cover for each satellite-derived product at 30-m resolution across Mexico. The data are in cloud optimized GeoTIFF format and cover the period 2010-2020. A shapefile is included that outlines Mexico mainland areas.

Raw nadir SIF at 760 nm from different algorithms (sFLD, 3FLD, iFLD, SFM) are included. SFM_nonlinear and SFM_linear represent the Spectral fitting method (SFM) with the assumption that fluorescence and reflectance change with wavelength non-linearly and linearly, respectively. Additional data include two SIF correction factors including calibration coefficient adjustment factor (f_cal_corr_QEPRO) and upscaling nadir SIF to eddy covariance footprint factor (ratio_EC footprint, SIF pixel), and measured FPAR from quantum sensors and Rededge NDVI calculated FPAR. The data are provided in comma-separated values (CSV) format.

Wetland_Soil_CarbonStocks_WA_2249

This dataset contains estimates of soil organic carbon stocks and wetland intrinsic potential (WIP) across the Hoh River Watershed in the Olympic Peninsula, WA, USA in 2012-2013. Estimates were derived from an equation based on wetland intrinsic potential and geology type (Stewart et al., 2023). Wetland intrinsic potential estimates the likelihood that that an area is a wetland using a random forest model built on vegetation, hydrology, and soil data (Halabisky et al., 2022). SOC estimates at 1 m and 30 cm, SOC standard deviations, and WIP are presented in Cloud-Optimized GeoTIFF (.tif) format at 4-m resolution. Also included are 36 field observations of SOC collected from 2020-08-01 to 2022-06-29. These are contained in a comma separated (.csv) file.

CMS_SOC_Mexico_1754

This dataset provides an estimate of soil organic carbon (SOC) in the top one meter of soil across Mexico at a 90-m resolution for the period 1999-2009. Carbon estimates (kg/m2) are based on a field data collection of 2852 soil profiles by the National Institute for Statistics and Geography (INEGI). The profile data were used for the development of a predictive model along with a set of environmental covariates that were harmonized in a regular grid of 90x90 m2 across all Mexican states. The base of reference was the digital elevation model (DEM) of the INEGI at 90-m spatial resolution. A model ensemble of regression trees with a recursive elimination of variables explained 54% of the total variability using a cross-validation technique of independent samples. The error associated with the predictive model estimates of SOC is provided. A summary of the total estimated SOC per state, statistical description of the modeled SOC data, and the number of pixels modeled for each state are also provided.

CMS_SOC_Mexico_CONUS_1737

This dataset provides two sets of gridded estimates of estimated soil organic carbon (SOC) and associated uncertainties for 0-30 cm topsoil layer in kg SOC/m2 at 250-m resolution across Mexico and the conterminous USA (CONUS). The first set of gridded SOC estimates, for the period 1991-2010, were derived using multi-source SOC field data and multiple environmental variables representative of the soil forming environment coupled with a machine learning approach (i.e., simulated annealing) and regression tree ensemble modeling for optimized SOC prediction. Predictions of gridded SOC and uncertainty based on multiple bulk density (BD) pedotransfer functions (PFTs) are also included. The second set of gridded SOC estimates, for the period 2009-2011, were derived from two fully independent validation field datasets from across both countries. Note that the same environmental variables and modeling approach used for the first set of estimates were applied to the second set to assess the models' sensitivity to multiple SOC data sources. The SOC field data for the first set of estimates are provided in this dataset and the other data sources, including the two independent validation field datasets, are referenced.

Country_SOC_Latin_America_1615

This dataset provides 5 x 5 km gridded estimates of soil organic carbon (SOC) across Latin America that were derived from existing point soil characterization data and compiled environmental prediction factors for SOC. This dataset is representative for the period between 1980 to 2000s corresponding with the highest density of observations available in the WoSIS system and the covariates used as prediction factors for soil organic carbon across Latin America. SOC stocks (kg/m2) were estimated for the SOC and bulk density point measurements and a spatially explicit measure of the SOC estimation error was also calculated. A modeling ensemble, using a linear combination of five statistical methods (regression Kriging, random forest, kernel weighted nearest neighbors, partial least squared regression and support vector machines) was applied to the SOC stock data at (1) country-specific and (2) regional scales to develop gridded SOC estimates (kg/m2) for all of Latin America. Uncertainty estimates are provided for the two model predictions based on independent model residuals and their full conditional response to the SOC prediction factors.

Tidal_Wetland_Soil_Carbon_1612

This dataset provides modeled estimates of soil carbon stocks for tidal wetland areas of the Conterminous United States (CONUS) for the period 2006-2010. Wetland areas were determined using both 2006-2010 Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) raster maps and the National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) vector data. All 30 x 30-meter C-CAP pixels were extracted that are coded as estuarine emergent, scrub/shrub, or forested in either 2006 or 2010. A soil database for model fitting and validation was compiled from 49 different studies with spatially explicit empirical depth profile data and associated metadata, totaling 1,959 soil cores from 18 of the 22 coastal states. Reported estimates of carbon stocks were derived with modeling approaches that included (1) applying a single average carbon stock value from the compiled soil core data, (2) applying models fit using the empirical data and applied spatially using soil, vegetation and salinity maps, (3) relying on independently generated soil carbon maps from The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA)'s Soil Survey Geographic Database (SSURGO), and the NWI that intersected with mapped tidal wetlands, and (4) using a version of SSURGO bias-corrected for bulk density. Comparisons of uncertainty, precision, and accuracy among these four approaches are also provided.

Tree_Canopy_Cover_Mexico_2137

The data set provides multi-year (2016-2018) percent tree cover (TC) estimates for entire Mexico at 30 m spatial resolution. The TC data (hereafter, NEX-TC) was derived from the 30 m Landsat Collection 1 product and a hierarchical deep learning approach (U-Net) developed in a previous CMS effort for the conterminous United States (CONUS) (Park et al., 2022). The hierarchical U-Net framework first developed a U-Net model for very high-resolution aerial images (NAIP) using training labels derived from previous work based on an interactive image segmentation tool and iterative updates with expert knowledge (Basu et al., 2015). The developed NAIP U-Net model and NAIP data produced 1-m NAIP TC across all lower 48 CONUS states. A Landsat U-Net model was developed for multi-year and large-scale TC mapping based on the very high-resolution NAIP TC made in the earlier stage. The Landsat U-Net model developed was adopted over the CONUS for testing its transferability, validation, and improvement across Mexico. This dataset provides national-scale percent tree cover estimates over Mexico and can be helpful for studies of carbon cycling, land cover and land use change, etc. The team has been working on improving temporal stability of the product and will update the product once the next version is ready to be shared.

High_Res_Tidal_Marsh_Veg_1609

This dataset provides maps of tidal marsh green vegetation, non-vegetation, and open water for six estuarine regions of the conterminous United States: Cape Cod, MA; Chesapeake Bay, MD, Everglades, FL; Mississippi Delta, LA; San Francisco Bay, CA; and Puget Sound, WA. Maps were derived from current National Agriculture Imagery Program data (2013-2015) using object-based classification for estuarine and palustrine emergent tidal marshes as indicated by a modified NOAA Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) map. These 1m resolution maps were used to calculate the fraction of green vegetation within 30m Landsat pixels for the same tidal marsh regions and these data are provided in a related dataset.

Wetland_Salinity_Maps_2392

This dataset provides gridded average annual wetland salinity concentrations in practical salinity units (PSU) at 30-meter resolution within 24 coastal estuary sites in the United States predicted for 2020. Salinity in estuaries can serve as a proxy for sulfate concentration, which can inhibit methanogenesis. Data were derived from a hybrid approach to mapping salinity as a continuous variable using a combination of physical watershed and stream characteristics, optical remote sensing based on vegetation characteristics, and climate variables. Data are provided in cloud-optimized GeoTIFF format covering 33 Hydrologic Unit Code 8-digit (HUC8) watersheds to the extent of palustrine and estuarine wetlands as defined by NOAA's 2016 Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) Coastal Land Cover layer. Additionally, model outputs are provided in comma separated values (CSV) files, and code scripts are provided in a compressed (.zip) file.
