Aboveground biomass density of vegetation (Mg/ha)

This file provides the pan-tropical biomass map published by Avitabile et al. (2016) "An integrated pan-tropical biomass map using multiple reference datasets". The data shows the aboveground biomass in Mg per ha in the tropic region at approximately 1 km resolution. For a proper use and description of this dataset, please refer to the mentioned article.
