Simulations for: The anthropogenic imprint on temperate and boreal forest demography and carbon turnover

LPJ-GUESS model output underlying analysis in: Thomas A. M. Pugh, Rupert Seidl, Daijun Liu, Mats Lindeskog, Louise P. Chini, Cornelius Senf, The anthropogenic imprint on temperate and boreal forest demography and carbon turnover, Global Ecology and Biogeography. 10.1111/geb.13773 For a full description of the simulations, please refer to the above paper. If using the data please cite this dataset and the publication above. Files are provided as netcdf4 files. Basic metadata is included in the headers of the individual files. # Simulation types _standard_nat_2014 -> Best estimate simulation under natural disturbance. Averaging period 2001-2014 _high_nat_2014 -> Upper estimate simulation under natural disturbance. Averaging period 2001-2014 _low_nat_2014 -> Lower estimate simulation under natural disturbance. Averaging period 2001-2014 _standard_nat_1990 -> Best estimate simulation under natural disturbance. Averaging period 1961-1990 _standard_natcc_2014 -> Best estimate simulation based on closed-canopy forest area calculations under natural disturbance. Averaging period 2001-2014 _standard_anthro_2014 -> Best estimate simulation under natural and anthropogenic disturbance. Averaging period 2001-2014 _high_anthro_2014 -> Upper estimate simulation under natural and anthropogenic disturbance. Averaging period 2001-2014 _low_anthro_2014 -> Lower estimate simulation under natural and anthropogenic disturbance. Averaging period 2001-2014 _site_recovery_Eurasia_nodist -> Site simulations for 4 Eurasian sites looking at the successional sequence. 800 years long under constant spinup environmental conditions. _site_recovery_America_nodist -> Site simulations for 5 North American sites looking at the successional sequence. 800 years long under constant spinup environmental conditions. # Variables (for units see netcdf metadata) Cveg -> Live vegetation carbon Clitter -> Litter carbon Csoil -> Soil carbon LAI -> Leaf area index NPP -> Net primary productivity GPP -> Gross primary productivity distprob -> Natural disturbance probability age -> Stand age structure temprange -> Annual temperature range (based on monthly means) wooddensity -> community mean wood density Note: All nat simulations assume that forest covers the whole grid cell. All anthro simulations assume that forest only covers the primary and secondary fractions of the grid cell, as defined in the LUH2 dataset, however values are given relative to the whole grid cell. I.e. value_on_forest_area * (primary_area_fraction+secondary_area_fraction).
