Dataset for paper "Solutions to global agricultural green water scarcity under climate change"

<p>These are datasets used to generate figures of paper&nbsp;&nbsp;&quot;Solutions to global agricultural green water scarcity under climate change&quot;.</p> <p>(1) fig1_GWS_Baseline, fig1_GWS_1.5C and fig1_GWS_1.5C are NetCDF files reporting&nbsp;agricultural green water scarcity (GWS) under Baseline climate conditions (1996-2005 period), 1.5&deg;C and 3&deg;C warmer&nbsp;climates, respectively.&nbsp;</p> <p>(2)&nbsp;fig2_num_of_month_Baseline, fig2_num_of_month_1.5C and&nbsp;fig2_num_of_month_3C are NetCDF files reporting the number of months that each grid cell faces GWS (with threshold 0.2)&nbsp;under Baseline climate conditions (1996-2005 period), 1.5&deg;C and 3&deg;C warming climates, respectively.&nbsp;fig2_data_Baseline, fig2_data_1.5C and&nbsp;fig2_data_3C are csv files reporting the countries with the highest exposure to GWS and number of months under Baseline, 1.5 &deg;C and 3 &deg;C warmer climates, respectively.&nbsp;</p> <p>(3)&nbsp;fig3_data_01,&nbsp;fig3_data_02&nbsp;and&nbsp;fig3_data_03 are csv files reporting the area of rain-fed croplands facing agricultural GWS in each month under GWS thresholds 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3,&nbsp;respectively.&nbsp;</p> <p>(4) fig4_data is the csv file reporting the number of people impacted by crop production loss induced by GWS under&nbsp;Baseline, 1.5 &deg;C and 3 &deg;C warmer climates with GWS thresholds of&nbsp;0.1, 0.2 and 0.3.</p> <p>(5)&nbsp;fig5_Baseline, fig5_1.5C and fig5_3C are csv files reporting the reduction of area facing GWS and increased people fed due to&nbsp;green water management solutions with different evapotranspiration reduction and infiltration increase levels, under&nbsp;Baseline, 1.5 &deg;C and 3 &deg;C warmer climates, respectively.</p> <p>(6)&nbsp;fig6_data_area and&nbsp;fig6_data_population are csv files reporting reduced rain-fed croplands facing GWS and&nbsp;additional people fed from decreased GWS, respectively, with&nbsp;evapotranspiration reduction and infiltration increase levels as 0.2.</p> <p>(7) irrigation_fraction is the NetCDF file reporting the percent of irrigated cropland in each grid cell. We use it as a mask to exclude croplands with larger than 5% irrigation. It is calculated based on &quot;Mehta, P. <em>et al.</em> Majority of 21st century global irrigation expansion has been in water stressed regions. (2022).&quot;</p>
