VEMAP

Submitted by ORNL DAAC Staff on
VEMAP-1 Database - The Vegetation/Ecosystem Modeling and Analysis Project (VEMAP) is an ongoing multiinstitutional, international effort addressing the response of biogeography and biogeochemistry to environmental variability in climate and other drivers in both space and time domains. The objectives of VEMAP are the intercomparison of biogeochemistry models and vegetationtype distribution models (biogeography models) and determination of their sensitivity to changing climate, elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations, and other sources of altered forcing.

Additional information is available by accessing the associated guide document . The data are available via VEMAP Searching through the ORNL DAAC web site.
