CALAND version 3

The California Natural and Workings Lands Carbon and Greenhouse Gas Model (CALAND) v3 estimates the effects of more than 16 specific land management activities on California’s landscape carbon budget. The model is based on field data from California and includes interactions among land management activities, wildfire, land use and cover change, and climate. Outputs include annual estimates of carbon stocks and fluxes, carbon dioxide and methane emissions, wood product storage and decay, and potential bioenergy feedstock. A map of the initial (2010) spatial delineation of land categories used by CALAND is included.
