    • Terrestrial Condition Assessment (TCA) Grassland Productivity

    Metadata Updated: October 2, 2025

    Direct Download (Raster Data Gateway)Objective: Identify areas of negative relative change in annual grassland vegetation productivity.Data: The indicator of biomass production departure is an estimate based on the percent area of a landscape with a negative relative change between a recent time period (most recent 5 years) and the historical record (beginning in 1984). There is a 1 year lag between the source data and the TCA Assessment year. For instance in 2024, mean annual productivity data used were 1984-2018 (historical record) and 2019-2023 (recent conditions). Note that in 2022, data only covers the western US, in all other years it covers CONUS.Format: Raster data are binary: (1) negative or (0) not negative.Resolution: 250mSource: Annual RPMS Products from FuelCast.
