Summary
Abstract: To accurately assess the impacts of human land-use on the Earth
System, information is needed on the current and historical patterns
of land-use activities. The Global Landuse Modeling (GLM) Data
collection provides the first global gridded estimates of the
underlying land conversions (land-use transitions), wood harvesting,
and resulting secondary lands annually, for the period
1700-2000. Using ... View entire text
