Global, per-pixel areas for 71 ecosystem types

Details

This dataset provides yearly, global time-series of per-pixel areas (in hectares) of 71 ecosystem types, including natural, semi-natural and artificial ecosystems. The distinction of ecosystem types follows he IUCN habitat classification scheme, being compatible with the assessments of habitat requirements for over 100,000 species.
