Coefficient of variation (CV) of length of growing period (LGP), 1901-1996 (FGGD)

The FGGD CV of LGP map is a global raster datalayer with a resolution of 5 arc-minutes. Each pixel contains an average coefficient of variation of LGP for the pixel area over the period 1901-1996. The data are from FAO and IIASA, 2000, Global agro-ecological zones, as reported in FAO and IIASA, 2007, Mapping biophysical factors that influence agricultural production and rural vulnerability, by H. von Velthuizen et al.
