MEGAN 3.2 input files

This document describes the contents of three zipped files for modeling BVOC emissions with MEGAN3.2

GFv7nc.zip:

These are global 1km2 maps of the four growth forms. All are in netcdf format

–          TC30s7.nc (tree), CC30s7 (crop), SC30s7.nc (shrub), GC30s7.nc (herbaceous)

EVT3d.zip:

This is a global 1km2 map of Emission type (EVT) distribution. It is in netcdf format

–          EVT3d.nc

EFP20240120.zip:

These files go in the “inputs” folder of the MEGAN EFP emission factor processor. All are in Comma Separated Values ASCII text format

-EFv20240120.csv contains emission factors

-SpeciationCrop230822.csv, SpeciationHerb230822.csv, SpeciationShrub230822.csv, SpeciationTree230921.csv each contain plant species composition for one of the major growth form types.
