This repository contains code central to:

  • Walker, W.S., S.R. Gorelik, S.C. Cook-Patton, A. Baccini, M.K. Farina, K.K. Solvik, P.W. Ellis, J. Sanderman, R.A. Houghton, S.M. Leavitt, C.R. Schwalm, and B.W. Griscom. 2022.

Output spatial and tabular data are available for download from Harvard Dataverse: https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/DSDDQK.

Global maps of carbon storage from Walker et al. (2022).

Contents

  • 1_mapping contains code used to model/map current, potential, and unrealized potential carbon in aboveground biomass, belowground biomass, and soil organic matter at the 500m spatial resolution.
  • 2_analysis contains code used to summarize global carbon stocks using raster-based zonal statistics.
  • classes contains tables used to identify classes in zonal rasters.
