Description:
This dataset was created using the MC2 Dynamic Global Vegetation Model. It represents the mode of projected vegetation types for the time period 2041 to 2050 under the down-scaled CGCM3 Global Circulation Model under the A1B emissions scenario. The fire suppression condition was set for the model run. The spatial resolution is 30 arc seconds, and the extent is the four corners region of the southwestern USA (Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico).
