1.6 +Hi Jim,
1.7 +The Amazon data are now on the ftp site.
1.8 +Please check

1.12 +
1.13 +
1.14 +go to the directory: LBA_products.
1.15 +I left the biomass map in Geotiff and also the veg class map.
1.16 +Biomass map has 11 classes:
1.17 +1: 0-25 Mg/ha
1.18 +2: 25-50
1.19 +3: 50-75
1.20 +4: 75:100
1.21 +5: 100-150
1.22 +6: 150-200
1.23 +7: 200-250
1.24 +8: 250-300
1.25 +9: 300-350
1.26 +10: 350-400
1.27 +11: >400
1.28 +
1.29 +
1.30 +Let me know if you need more information.
1.31 +We got Jim Tiucker excited about Nicole's abstract. He is going to give us 2003-2005 data hot from his Goddard Oven.
1.32 +

1.41 +Hi Sassan,
1.42 +
1.43 +
1.44 +I'm writing to ask if I could please have a copy of your Amazon biomass dataset. Can I ftp it from JPL? - or should I set up an account for you on one of my computers here to transfer it? I'd like to use it to compare with global model outputs from NCAR.
1.45 +
1.46 +
1.47 +Also, I like the idea of comparing the NDVI with the freeze thaw. It sounds like the trends that Nicole described in her abstract are getting stronger!
1.48 +
1.49 +
1.50 +Cheers,

1.53 +Hi Nicole,
1.54 +Sorry for this delay. I was rushing from one meeting to another yesterday. Jim and I talked about the abstract and he agreed to be included was happy to contribute.
1.55 +He is going to give us the newly processed GIMMS NDVI data including 2005 for our study.
1.56 +He is copied on this email.
