Residential rangelands

This indicators measures the country-level extension (in sq. Km) of the residential rangelands anthrome class, which includes rangelands with substantial human population. According to Ellis et Al., (2011), anthrome classes ranges from wildlands - with little antrhropogenic impact on the ecosystem - to dense human settlements - in which the anthropogenic impact is maximum. This indicator is part of the Anthropogenic Biomes of the World (Version 2).
