Description

These are the monthly averages of select ED2 output variables, in NetCDF, for the three simulations conducted as part of the following paper:

Longo, M., M. Keller, L. M. Kueppers, K. Bowman, O. Csillik, A. Ferraz, P. R. Moorcroft, J. P. Ometto, B. S. Soares-Filho, X. Xu, M. L. F. de Assis, E. B. Görgens, E. J. L. Larson, J. F. Needham, E. M. Ordway, F. R. S. Pereira, E. Rangel Pinagé, L. Sato, L. Xu and S. Saatchi. Degradation and deforestation increase the sensitivity of the Amazon Forest to climate extremes. In review.

The file suffixes describe to which simulation each file corresponds:

  • R004_BrAmaz_s1c0t0l0f0. These files are from the Control simulation. The prefix of the files describes the type of output:
    • ED2_domain_R004_BrAmaz_s1c0t0l0f0.nc. This is the extent of the file domain.
    • ED2_zones_R004_BrAmaz_s1c0t0l0f0.nc. This files contains the attribution of each grid cell to one of the sub-domain zones used in the manuscript.
    • ED2_emean_Global_R004_BrAmaz_s1c0t0l0f0.nc. This file contains the monthly averages of select variables for the entire domain.
  • R005_BrAmaz_s1c0t1l1f0. These files are from the Degraded simulation. The files are similar to the ones described for simulation R004_BrAmaz_s1c0t0l0f0 (Control).
  • R006_BrAmaz_s1c0t1l0f0. These files are from the Recovery simulation. The files are similar to the ones described for simulation R004_BrAmaz_s1c0t0l0f0 (Control).

The variables included in the NetCDF files contain metadata describing the quantity and the units. Important: For biomass-related variables, units shown in kg actually correspond to kg C (~50% of oven-dry biomass).
