CATDS-CEC-SM L3 AGB Aggregated yearly global map of vegetation above ground biomass (AGB) obtained from SMOS' satellite optical thickness

This product is established from one of the SMOS product: the optical thickness. The optical thickness or VOD is obtained directly from SMOS data by use of the multi-angular capability. For low vegetation (grass, crops,...) it is linked mainly to the water content while for forested areas it is more linked to the above ground biomass (AGB). The product is a yearly aggregation of AGB derived using different references (ESA BIOMASS CCI, Avitabile AGB estimates etc...) and is available for SMOS life time (2010 - now)
