MEGAN-MOHYCAN global isoprene emissions accounting for space-based land cover changes [ALBERI dataset]

This dataset contains the monthly-averaged emissions of isoprene released by terrestrial vegetation at global scale, at 0.5°x0.5° resolution, between 2001 and 2018, calculated using the MEGAN-MOHYCAN model and taking into account land use/land cover change based on satellite data (Global Forest Watch and MODIS datasets).

It is fully described in Opacka et al., Global and regional impacts of land cover changes on isoprene emissions derived from spaceborne data and the MEGAN model, Atmos. Chem. Phys., 21, 8413-8436, https://doi.org/10.5194/acp-21-8413-2021, 2021.

Each year is in a NC file (size 12Mb) and a Zip file, containing all data, is provided too.
