LiDAR-Derived Aboveground Biomass and Uncertainty for California Forests, 2005-2014

This dataset provides estimates of aboveground biomass and spatially explicit uncertainty from 53 airborne LiDAR surveys of locations throughout California between 2005 and 2014. Aboveground biomass was estimated by performing individual tree crown detection and applying a customized "remote sensing aware" allometric equation to these individual trees. Aboveground biomass estimates and their uncertainties for each study area are provided in per-tree and gridded format. The canopy height models used for the tree detection and biomass estimation are also provided.

Climate Normals for Last Glacial Maximum and Modern (1975-2005), Alaska

​This dataset provides two 30-year climate normal data products for conditions during the last glacial maximum (LGM; ~18,000 years ago) and a modern time period (1975-2005) for the entire state of Alaska at 60 m resolution, including: minimum, maximum, and average temperatures, total precipitation, total surface radiation, rain, snow, potential evapotranspiration (PET), actual evapotranspiration (AET), and water deficit.

Loxodonta Localizer

Loxodonta Localizer maps the localities from which mitochondrial DNA sequences have been reported for African elephants, Loxodonta africana and L. cyclotis, using the dataset described in Ishida et al., 2013, updated with additional sequences.
