Visualising Forests in a Changing Climate: Insights from ESA CCI Data

This recorded training session from the ESA CCI Knowledge Exchange dives into how ESA Climate Change Initiative (CCI) datasets, specifically above-ground biomass (AGB), can be used to explore tropical forest changes.

You'll learn how to access, visualise, and analyse biomass data using theESA CCI Toolbox in the JupyterLab environment, with hands-on examples focusing on regions such as the Amazon, northern Bolivia, and Altamira in Brazil. The session also covers creating regional and temporal subsets, generating plots and simple animations, and working with different data formats (Zarr, Kerchunk, NetCDF).

The session also provides guidance on the Forests in a Changing Climate Competition, including participation guidelines and tips for effective science communication.
