  Description:
    Abstract: These land use forecasts were generated for the years 2020 and 2040 under two different scenarios.  The data were generated using a model that forecasts land use change.
    Purpose: These data are used to illustrate potential quantity and location of land use changes in the South, especially those that affect the distribution of forests.
