Introduction

Exercises on monitoring biomass production using satellite remote sensing.

Contents

• Exercise 1 (GPP_NPP_input_exploration.ipynb): Here you will explore which inputs are required to compute biomass production from satellite input data and run your own NPP model.

• Exercise 2 (Wapor_NPP_TBP.ipynb): Here you will learn how to access and explore the biomass data products of the FAO WaPOR data portal.
