Ready to use climate projections

Ready to use climate change data are suitable for direct use in climate change impact studies and physical risk assessments. Our referenced high-resolution, multi model, and multi scenarios datasets of weather variables, indices and hazards is the most coherent collection available of climate information for local risk analysis and modelling over the globe.

High resolution

From 0.25°x0.25° (about 25x25 km) to 0.10°x0.10° (about 10x10 km) spatial resolution over the globe according to datasets and IPCC climate modelling experiments. Temporal resolution is daily values from 1951 to 2100.

Multi scenario

3 Shared Socioeconomic Pathways from IPCC AR6 (SSP1-2.6, SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5) and 2 Representative Concentration Pathways from IPCC AR5 ( RCP4.5 and RCP8.5). Other scenarios available on demand.

Multi model

5 reference Models for IPCC AR6 and a full set of 21 Models for IPCC AR5. For our AR6 data update we privileged a higher spatial resolution (0.10° versus 0.25°) and more scenarios (3 versus 2) compared to our IPCC AR5 data.

Datasets

The datasets are commercial under an annual licence (free for publicly funded research). Domain extractions go by location, country or continent.
