Title: China County Data Collection, Livestock

Description:

Abstract:

The Livestock dataset contains four variables which provide census data for Cattle, Hogs, Horses (horses, donkeys and camels), and Sheep (sheep and goats). These census data are based on 1990 statistics. See the references for the sources of these data. China County Data collection contains seven datasets which were compiled in the early 1990s for use as inputs to the DNDC (Denitrification-Decomposition) model at UNH. DNDC is a computer simulation model for predicting carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) biogeochemistry in agricultural ecosystems. The datasets were compiled from multiple Chinese sources and all are at the county scale for 1990. The datasets which comprise this collection are listed below. 1) Agricultural Management 2) Crops 3) N-Deposition 4) Geography and Population 5) Land Use 6) Livestock 7) Soil Properties
