About the dataset

The compilation datasets of vegetation structure, biomass, and carbon stocks collected from tropical wetland ecosystems including mangrove and peatland. It is produced and compiled by SWAMP’s researchers between 2009 and 2019.

The Sustainable Wetlands Adaptation and Mitigation Program (SWAMP) is a collaborative effort by the Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR), the USDA Forest Service (USFS) and Oregon State University with support from the US Agency for International Development (USAID). SWAMP evolved from a multi-stakeholder exercise called the Tropical Wetlands Initiative for Climate Adaptation and Mitigation (TWINCAM), when the group was called to respond to a variety of challenges requested by stakeholders, ranging from local to global imperatives of sustainable wetlands management.
