Biomass estimation of oilseed rape using the light use efficiency model in Bavaria (Atlas) in LandKlif project

<p>This dataset shows the predicted biomass (g/m2) of oilseed rape (OSR) using the light use efficiency (LUE) model for Bavaria in 2019. The LUE model uses satellite data (Landsat-8, MODIS) and climate data (temperature and solar radiation) to calculate the plant biomass. The crop yield is predicted and validated at district level using LfStat data. The validation results show an R2 of 0.79 with an RMSE of 2.21 dt/ha.&nbsp;</p> <p>This dataset is conducted under LandKlif project. LandKlif is funded by the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.stmwk.bayern.de/englisch.html"><strong>Bavarian State Ministry of Science and the Arts</strong></a> within the <a href="https://www.bayklif.de/"><strong>Bavarian Climate Research Network (bayklif)</strong></a><strong>.&nbsp;</strong> Within the five year funding period of bayklif, five interdisciplinary senior research associations and five junior research groups are be financed with a total sum of 18 million Euro. <strong>LandKliF</strong>, as one of the five interdisciplinary senior research associations, addresses the effects of climate change on biodiversity and ecosystem services in semi-natural, agricultural and urban landscapes.</p>
