- Using 1-km Drivers of Tree Cover Loss map (2023 version): The 1-km Drivers of Tree Cover Loss map (under review at Environmental Research Letters), led by Michelle Sims, Radost Stanimirova, and Google Deepmind, has been updated using TCL through 2023. This updated version of the 1-km Drivers classification replaces the previous version trained on TCL through 2022 used in v1.4.0 of the Carbon Flux model.
- Creating Aggregated Display Maps: In addition to creating raw, aggregated ~4km global rasters, the model now also exports jpegs for media/ presentations to ensure consistent formatting between model versions.
Note that everything before the emissions part of the model did not change and was not rerun (model extent, removal factors, gain year count, gross removals, carbon pools in year of loss). Only gross emissions and net flux are affected by this change.
