ECOCLIMAP-II/Europe: a twofold database of ecosystems and surface parameters at 1-km resolution based on satellite information for use in land surface, meteorological and climate models
2012
Geoscientific Model Development Discussions
The strategy for implementing ECOCLIMAP-II is to depart from prevalent land cover products such as CLC2000 (Corine Land Cover) and GLC2000 (Global Land Cover) by splitting existing classes into new classes ...
The new ECOCLIMAP-II can be verified with auxiliary land cover products at very fine and coarse resolutions by means of versatile land occupation nomenclatures. www.geosci-model-dev.net/6/563/2013/ Geosci ...
The authors are indebted to Centre d'Etudes Spatiales de la Biosphere (CESBIO, Toulouse) for providing access to the high-resolution land cover map product generated with FORMOSAT observations. ...
