Plant functional types (PFTs)
Tree PFTs:
- Tropical (trop)
- 1. tropical broad-leaved evergreen;
- 2. tropical broad-leaved raingreen;
- Temperate (tem)
- 3. temperate needle-leaved evergreen;
- 4. temperate broad-leaved evergreen;
- 5. temperate broad-leaved summer green;
- Boreal (bor)
- 6. boreal summer green;
- 7. boreal needle-leaved evergreen;
Grass PFTs:
- 8. C3 herbaceous;
- 9. C4 herbaceous.
Natural land cover (biome)
- Ice
- Tundra
- Wooded tundra
- Boreal forest
- Cool coniferous forest
- Temperate mixed forest
- Temperate deciduous forest
- Warm mixed forest
- Grassland and steppe
- Hot desert
- Scrubland
- Savanna
- Tropical woodland
- Tropical forest
Natural vegetation types (biomes) are classified based on the area shares of the plant functional types (PFT)s and their foliage projected cover (FPC), the mena temperature and net primary production (NPP) according to the flowchart below.
