Global human-made mass exceeds all living biomass

This repository contains all source data and code for the analysis found in "Global human-made mass exceeds all living biomass" by Emily Elhacham, Liad Ben Uri, Jonathan Grozovski, Yinon M. Bar-On and Ron Milo.

An index for the structure of this repository is given below:

• biomass_calculation/ | Data and code for biomass estimation and uncertainty
• C_content/ | Data and code for biomass carbon content calculation
• intersection_year_uncertainty/ | Data and code for estimating the uncertainties of the years in which the anthropogenic mass and biomass intersect
• sensitivity_analysis/ | Data and code for the sensitivity analysis of the anthropogenic mass definition
• wet_weight_calculation/ | Data and code for estimating biomass wet-to-dry-mass conversion factor
