Gross Biomass Water Productivity

Biodiversity, Biomass, Protected AreasGlobalFood and Agriculture Organisation (FAO)

Dataset Objective

To provide the quantity of output (total biomass production) in relation to the full water consumed in the year.

Context

What is included

Data contains the quantity of output (total biomass production) in relation to the total volume of water consumed in the year categorized as 0, 0.1, 0.5, 1,2, and >3 kg/m^3 from 2009-2016.

Collection Methods

Data was collected using remote sensing. The calculation of gross biomass water productivity (GBWP) is as follows: GBWP = TBP/ETIa, Where TBP is annual Total Biomass Production in kg/ha and ETIa is annual Actual EvapoTranspiration and Interception in m³/ha.
