Below-Ground Biomass Mapping in Baljurashi Governorate, Al Baha Region, Saudi Arabia

This dataset presents the spatial distribution of below-ground biomass (BGB) in Baljurashi Governorate, Al Baha Region, Saudi Arabia. BGB values are expressed in megagrams per hectare (Mg/ha) and derived from field measurements and allometric models. The data supports assessment of root biomass, carbon storage, and soil–vegetation interactions. The map highlights spatial variation in BGB, offering insights for carbon accounting, ecosystem modeling, and sustainable land management.
