Spatial Prioritisation of Total Carbon Storage 2023 (England)
Summary
These spatial datasets consider the lands contribution to preventing and mitigating climate change, through storage of carbon in the Soils (below ground) & Vegetation (above ground). This total carbon spatial datasets represent a strategic resource for England, that indicate the range of carbon storage values in tonnes of carbon per hectare (t C Ha-1 ). At a local scale (e.g. 1:50 000). They are presented as a series of raster datasets for use in GIS Systems at a resolution of 25m2. These...

Lineage
Total Carbon Storage adds the two carbon storage layers together. As the above & below ground carbon storage layers indicate the range of carbon storage values in tonnes of carbon per hectare (t C Ha-1 ). At a local scale (e.g. 1:50 000). They are presented as a series of raster datasets for use in GIS Systems at a resolution of 25m2. Each 25m2 has a carbon total form the layers and these are added together spatially to create the total carbon layer in tonnes of carbon per hectare (t C Ha-1 ) NE PHI/ Ancient Woodland - OGL NE Living England - OGL NE Peatmap [2008] - Non- comercial licence NFI-National Forest Inventory (NFI) Forest Reserach- OGL Soilscapes - Cranfield University- NE Bespoke Licence SRTM- NASA ShuttleRadar Topography- Open Topography
