Abstract:
Content of Excel files:
--
BASE calculation.xlsx:
This is the core dataset for "Assessing the Efficiency of Land Use Changes for Mitigating Climate Change" using a 4% discount rate for all calculations.
--
Sensitivity variant DISC 2%.xlsx
Sensitivity variant DISC 6%.xlsx:
Sensitivity calculations using 2% and 6% discount rates.
--
Sensitivity variant GAIN.xlsx
Calculations using the carbon gain method.
--
Sensitivity variant HIGH.xlsx
Sensitivity variant LOW.xlsx:
Calculations using +/- 20% variations for native vegetation estimates and +/- 30% for soil carbon estimates under native vegetation. The HIGH variant uses 20% and 30% higher values for vegetation and soil carbon stocks in native vegetation, respectively, than the central scenario. The LOW variant uses 20% and 30% lower values for vegetation and soil carbon stocks in native vegetation, respectively,than the central scenario.

Annual net primary productivity of potential native vegetation under current climate simulated with the LPJmL model.
--
lpjml_vegc_avg_cor_2001-2010.asc:
Above- and below-ground carbon stocks of potential natural vegetation under current climate simulated with the LPJmL model and adjusted at the biome level according to reference values from the literature (see Supplementary Information).
