A cropland cover dataset for the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River over the past millennium

<p>We developed a new gridding allocation model for croplands&nbsp;with unequal weight factors and reconstructed 58 time-point cropland cover maps at a 10-km resolution for the past millennium in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River in China. The cropland dataset can be used to&nbsp;model past climate change, estimate carbon emissions, assess human-activity-induced ecological effects, and improve global historical land use scenarios.</p>
