Summary
Abstract: The Global Patterns in Human Appropriation of Net Primary Productivity (HANPP) portion of the HANPP Collection represents a digital map of human appropriation of net primary productivity measured in units of elemental carbon on a one-quarter degree global grid. Net primary productivity (NPP), the net amount of solar energy converted to plant organic matter through photosynthesis, can be measured ... View entire text

Purpose: To assist in understanding human impacts on the environment, and especially impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services.
