LUCAS model spatial output data of historical and projected future land use and land cover for California

This dataset provides annual raster maps of historical and projected future land use and land cover (LULC) for California, USA. Changes in LULC over time were simulated using the Land Use and Carbon Scenario Simulator (LUCAS) model. The model was run at 1-km resolution on an annual timestep for historical (1985-2020) and projected future time periods (2021-2100). Simulations for the projected future time period were run under all combinations of four climate scenarios, two urbanization scenarios, and two vegetation management scenarios with 40 Monte Carlo realizations for each simulation.
