Variable General Info
Net primary production ?Comment:The NPP data set contains modeled annual net primary production (NPP) for the land biosphere from seventeen different global models (Cramer et al. 1999). This data set was created in the mid-1990s with 17 models available at that time. It uses data from Remote Sensing Based Models, Models of Seasonal Biogeochemical Fluxes and Models of Process and Pattern (Function and Structure). |
