Data Description A polygon dataset that estimates the green biomass volume (green metric tonnes) of harvest residues in planted softwood, planted hardwood and native forest across all tenures in Tasmania, Australia for the purposes of determining availability of biomass for bioenergy, locations and quantities. This information has been collated for the Australian Biomass for Bioenergy Assessment (ABBA) project and will be available for use on the Australian Renewable Energy Mapping Infrastructure (AREMI) platform, to build a national map to service the renewable energy sector. The annual harvest residue data contained in the feature dataset were derived from a set of 30 year forest harvest simulation models developed as part of the ‘Residues Solution Study’ (http://www.stategrowth.tas.gov.au/forestry/residues). The models were developed in joint by Private Forests Tasmania and Forestry Tasmania. The harvest residues data is presented for each of the nine Forestry Tasmania supply regions and is classified into four source forest types (All Planted Softwood, All Planted Hardwood, Publicly Managed Native Forest and Privately Managed Native Forest) and the harvest period 2019-2026, expressed as separate layers as follows: o Native Forest - harvest residues o Plantation Hardwood - harvest residues o Plantation Softwood - harvest residues Disclaimer The data supplied was produced from predictive models developed from available resource information, and market and owner intent assumptions, as at December 2013, obtained from a range of external sources. As such the actual harvest residue levels to be achieved in any given period into the future will most likely vary from the values provided and the user should seek confirmation from relevant Government agencies and forest managers before using in any investment or other decision making process.

The Biomass Plot Library is a collation of stem inventory data across federal, state and local government departments, universities, private companies and other agencies. It was motivated by the need for calibration/validation data to underpin national mapping of above-ground biomass from integration of Landsat time-series, ICESat/GLAS lidar, and ALOS PALSAR bacscatter data under the auspices of the JAXA Kyoto & Carbon (K&C) Initiative (Armston et al., 2016). At the time of Version 1.0 publication 1,073,837 hugs of 839,866 trees across 1,467 species had been collated. This has resulted from 16,391 visits to 12,663 sites across most of Australia's bioregions. Data provided for each project by the various source organisation were imported to a PostGIS database in their native form and then translated to a common set of tree, plot and site level observations with explicit plot footprints where available. Data can be downloaded from https://field.jrsrp.com/ by selecting the combinations Tree biomass and Site Level, Tree Biomass and Tree Level.
