Forest data | Global database with information about forest biomass and fluxes. Collected by Sebastiaan Luyssaert is described in the Luyssaert et al. 2007 paper in Global Change Biology. Users are requested to cite this paper. | S. Luyssaert | --- | Get it |
Socio-economic driver maps | Driver maps for GDP and population on half degree resolution. Country scale information for population for this period distinguishes between rural and urban population. GDP indicators are in MER (Market exchange rate) and also distinguish between rural and urban. | H. Bottcher | 2000-2020 | Get it |

Meteo driver maps | The dataset results from the harmonization and downscaling of the WATCH and ERA Interim datasets. It contains mean temperature (Tair), minimum temperature (Tmin), maximum temperature (Tmax), precipitation (Precip), short wave solar radiation downward (SHdown), long wave solar radiation downward (LWdown), wind speed (Wind), specific humidity (Qmean), atmospheric pressure at the surface (PSurf). | Enrico Tomelleri | 1901-2100 | Get it |
N Deposition driver maps | The data-set contains 1850-2010 reduced and oxidised downward nitrogen deposition velocities obtained from the TM5, NCAR, and EMEP CTMs, as well as a synthesis data set from the ACCENT project. Furthermore a scenario for 2005-2050 based on the EMAC model is also presented | Soenke Zaehle | 1901-2100 | Get it |
LandUse Change driver maps | Data is a product of the HILDA model (HIstoric Land Dynamics Assessment) processed by Richard Fuchs and Martin Herold (Laboratory of Geo-Information Science and Remote Sensing, Wageningen University, Netherlands) | Richard Fuchs | 1900-2010 | Get it |
Forest Age driver maps | Data derived from forest inventory information 1950 to 2010 and backcasting using the method of Seidl et al. 2011 (GCB 17, 2842-2852). The data contain forest area per age class 1-20, 21-40, 41-60, ... 121-140, 140+ for 1950, 1960, ... 2010. Data after the most recent forest inventory were derived from EFSOS II projections of the EFISCEN model (UNECE/FAO 2011) | Marcus Lindner | 1950-2010 | Get it |
Crop data for Europe | These are crops for EU 27 on the 1km EU reference grid based on best practise and regional crop data on NUTS2 level. The reference grid is availabe from:
http://eusoils.jrc.ec.europa.eu/library/reference_grids/reference_grids.cfm The crop is the crop HARVESTED in the year given. In case of a winter crop it needs to be planted in the year before. The N application is total fertiliser (Manure plus miniral) in kgN per ha. | Martin Wattenbach | --- | Get it |
Grassland management for Europe | The grassland management for Europe (0.25° x 0.25°, [29.125N ; 71.375N] x [-23.875E ; 45.375E], 170 x 278 pixels) was established after EU-FP6 NitroEurope data (as provided by Adrian Leip, European Commission Joint Research Centre). Based on regional and national statistics and a modelled part, three intensification levels (Low, Medium and High) were created. | Raphael Martin | 1901-2100 | Get it |
Long term emission database | Long-term Climate Policy Scenario Results (Del 6.4) Major environmental, societal, market, and technological impacts in electronic data base format.
