This layer provides the Effective Leaf Area Index (LAIe), a critical parameter for modeling evapotranspiration and carbon fluxes between the biosphere and the atmosphere. Monitoring the dis...
This layer presents the Effective Leaf Area Index (LAIe) Anomalies, representing the deviation of current vegetation density from the historical average. Monitoring the change of LAI i...
The Fraction of Photosynthetically Active Radiation Absorbed (FAPAR) is used to track the overall primary productivity associated with atmospheric CO2 fixation. FAPAR anomalies relative to the average...
The Fraction of Absorbed Photosynthetically Active Radiation (FAPAR) is an Essential Climate Variable that serves as an integrated indicator of the status and health of plant canopies. FAPAR plays a c...
Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) for PV systems in Africa and the Middle East. The calculations are based on estimates of the PV energy productivity from satellite data combined with models for the per...
Air condition indicates whether the air quality is fit for human use and ecosystems. This indicator is based on PM2.5 concentrations based on the Global Annual PM2.5 Grids data combining Aerosol Optic...
HydroBASINS is a global, vectorized layer of hierarchically nested sub-basin boundaries. It provides seamless coverage and uses the 'Pfafstetter' coding system offering a 12 scales breakdown to enable...
HydroRIVERS represents a vectorized line network of all global rivers that have a catchment area of at least 10 km² or an average river flow of at least 0.1 m³/sec, or both. HydroRIVERS only includes ...
The Africa Topographic Potisiont layer classifies the African landscape (including Madagascar, Comoros Islands, and other coastal Islands near continenal Africa) into uplands and lowlands/depressions ...
The dataset depicts the total energy demand per settlement (kWh/day) at year 5 under scenario with household consumption raised to 1000 Wh/day (at year 0). This dataset is part of the e Refugee Settle...
