PEATGRIDS: Mapping global peat thickness and carbon stock via digital soil mapping approach, dataset

PEATGRIDS: a dataset containing the first peat thickness and carbon stock maps estimated over peatlands area across the globe at 1 km x 1 km resolution. Carbon stock was calculated across all depths of the predicted peat thickness, multiplied by peat bulk density (BD) and carbon content (CC) across five depths: 0-15 cm, 15-30 cm, 30-60 cm, 60-100 cm, and 100-200 cm. Mapping effort was performed using random forest regression based on remotely sensed data and environmental covariates, including topography, climate, soil properties, and land cover. The maps cover areas defined as 'peat-dominated' by the Global Peat Map v2.0 obtained from the Global Peat Database.
