Carbon stock and density of northern boreal and temperate forests

AIM: To infer a forest carbon density map at 0.01° resolution from a radar remote sensing product for the estimation of carbon stocks in Northern Hemisphere boreal and temperate forests. LOCATION: The study area extends from 30° N to 80° N, covering three forest biomes – temperate broadleaf and mixe...
