Minnesota (USA) Climate Change Project: Dominant species at Year 0 (1995), assuming emissions scenario A2, Hadley3 GCM, restoration harvest rates and intensity

May 3, 2010 (Last modified May 4, 2010)
Dataset was used in a scientifically peer-reviewed publication
Description:
This dataset depicts dominant species groups in Minnesota (USA) at year 0 (1995) from a single model run of LANDIS-II. The simulation assumed Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) A2 emissions (moderate) and used the Hadley 3 global circulation model. Restoration harvest rates and intensities were simulated. Restoration harvesting was spatially allocated following ecological land units (rather than ownership) and harvest frequency, severity, and size distributions were based on historic wind and fire regimes. The projected dominant species were listed as follows: 1) Spruce and Fir; 2) Northern Hardwoods: Sugar Maple; 3) Northern Hardwoods: Red Maple; 4) Aspen and Birch; 5) White, Red, and Jack Pine; 6) Other species.
