Climate projections of hazards and weather variables

Our climate projections data are suitable for direct use in climate change impact studies and physical risk assessments. Our referenced high-resolution, multi-model, and multi-scenarios climate projections of weather hazard and variables, is the most coherent collection of climate information available for risk analysis and modeling.

Climate projections features

The climate simulation data have a variety of specifications among which spatial resolution, climate models, future scenarios, temporal resolution and data formats.

High-resolution

A spatial resolution of 0.10°x0.10° over the globe. Temporal resolution is annual for hazards indicators, daily for variables, from 1981 to 2100.

Multi-scenario

Three Shared Socioeconomic Pathways from IPCC AR6 (SSP1-2.6, SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5) based on the CMIP6 experiment.

Multi-model

Five reference Earth System Models from IPCC AR6 selected by the Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison Project (ISIMIP). More models are added progressively.

Global Warming Levels

Hazard metrics can be deliverd by Global Warming Levels (GWLs). GLWs show how much global temperature has risen above pre-industrial conditions (e.g., 3°C).

Custom periods

Hazard annual metrics can be delivered as is or averaged over 20-years or 30-years periods according to your specifications.

Multiple formats

Data files are in netcdf, a commonly used format for climate model data, but depending of the volume of data other formats are possible such as geotif or shapefile.
