Globally Harmonized Carbon Storage Data using a Simple Decision Tree Approach
Johnson, J. A.
Show abstract
This paper presents methods and results that combine multiple carbon storage and above-ground biomass datasets using a simple decision tree approach. The resulting dataset combines the positive attributes of the multiple input datasets in order to have global, high-resolution extent while utilizing the best statistical methods where possible. Visual inspection shows very different spatial configurations of carbon storage between the results and the input data, suggesting that combination of methods can improve estimates. The summation of the decision tree result was 336.55 petagrams while the summation of a dataset based on the IPCC Tier 1 method was 502.38 petagrams (49.27% higher than the results from the decision tree).

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
