ICARIA: climate projections from statistical downscaling outputs

<p><strong>ICARIA </strong>project had as one of its main purposes to develop coherent, reliable and usable downscaled climate projections from the last CMIP6 in order to construct the basis for efficient support to climate adaptation and decision-making of the related stakeholders, supporting the adaptation of critical assets within the project. These projections were obtained with also the purpose to be freely available for further use in subsequent studies and, hence, foster adaptation to climate change in more areas. Therefore, ICARIA&rsquo;s climate information is already based on CMIP6 models and incorporating in its workflow the current SSPs. The presented high-resolution future climate projections display a unique dataset. These models will provide the scenarios to be considered within the Risk Assessment and the design and development of all adaptation measures coming as ICARIA outcomes.</p> <p>For further details, find here a brief of the <strong>methodology </strong>followed:<strong> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>----- &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><em>The statistical downscaling methodology applied in ICARIA by FIC, named FICLIMA (Ribalaygua et al. 2013), consists of a two-step analogue/regression statistical method which has been used in national and international projects with good verification results (i.e.: Monjo et al. 2016). The first step is common for all simulated climate variables and it is based on an analogue stratification (Zorita et al. 1993). An analogue method was applied based on the hypothesis that &lsquo;analogue&rsquo; atmospheric patterns (predictors) should cause analogue local effects (predictands), which means that the number of days that were most similar to the day to be downscaled was selected. The similarity between any two days was measured according to three nested synoptic windows (with different weights) and four large-scale fields using a pseudo-Euclidean distance between the large-scale fields used as predictors. For each predictor, the weighted Euclidean distance was calculated and standardised by substituting it with the closest percentile of a reference population of weighted Euclidean distances for that predictor. This method is a good method for reproducing nonlinear relationships between predictors and the predictands, but it could not be used to simulate values outside of the range of observed values. In order to overcome this problem and obtain a better simulation, a second step was required.</em></p> <p><em>For this second step, the procedures applied depend on the variable of interest. To determine the temperature, multiple linear regression analysis for the selected number of most analogous days was performed for each station and for each problem day. From a group of potential predictors, the linear regression selected those with the highest correlation, using a forward and backward stepwise approach.</em></p> <p><em>For precipitation, a group of m problem days (we use the whole days of a month) is downscaled. For each problem day we obtain a &ldquo;preliminary precipitation amount&rdquo; averaging the rain amount of its n most analogous days, so we can sort the m problem days from the highest to the lowest &ldquo;preliminary precipitation amount&rdquo;. For assigning the final precipitation amount, all amounts of the m&times;n analogous days are sorted and clustered in m groups. Every quantity is finally assigned, orderly, to the m days previously sorted by the &ldquo;preliminary precipitation amount&rdquo;.</em></p> <p><em>For wind or relative humidity, the second step is a transfer function between the observed probability distribution and the simulated one using the averaged values from the n = 30 analogous days. Particularly, a parametric bias correction was performed to the time series obtained from the analogue stratification (first step). In order to estimate the improvement of this procedure, the bias correction was also applied to the direct model outputs.</em></p> <p><em>This second step done at a daily scale with an inner thorough verification procedure is essential and the main differentiating process of FICLIMA method. It extends beyond mean values to include extremes and covers all time scales, including daily intervals. With the verification it can be proven If the method correctly simulates changes from one day to the next, indicating an effective capture of the underlying physical connections between predictors and predictands. These physical links remain relatively consistent, even in the face of climate change (as opposed to purely empirical relationships that might shift). In essence, this approach theoretically addresses the primary challenge in statistical downscaling known as the non-stationarity problem.

Climate Solutions Explorer - downscaled country-level IAM scenarios

<p><strong>This is a pre-release dataset and is subject to change.</strong></p> <p>The Climate Solutions Explorer website maps and presents information about mitigation pathways, avoided climate impacts, vulnerabilities and risks arising from development and climate change. <strong><a href="https://www.climate-solutions-explorer.eu">www.climate-solutions-explorer.eu</a></strong></p> <p>The Mitigation (and Summary) Dashboards present mitigation information, i.e. emissions, energy and carbon sequestration, for over 200 countries and 10 regions. To present data for all countries, Integrated Assessment Model runs from the MESSAGEix-GLOBIOM model have been downscaled by using a methodology described in Sferra et al. 2021 <a href="#_ftn1">[1]</a>. The algorithm produces a range of pathways consistent with the underlying IAM-results, based on criteria such as historical data, planned capacities, country-available resource in the form of supply cost-curves, quality of governance as well as regional benchmarks based on IAM results. The data is provided from 2020 to 2070, for a limited set of variables used on the website.</p> <p>The scenarios included are:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Current Policies:</strong> Current Policies scenarios here are based on the implementation of national mitigation targets implemented by country without any further strengthening of action. Expected to lead to 2.7 &deg;C by 2100. The data is from the MESSAGEix-GLOBIOM_1.1 GP_CurPol_T45 scenario.</li> <li><strong>NDCs Delayed Action to 2030:</strong> Assumes trajectory based on the implemented NDCs until 2030, and then reduces emissions typically in line with a globally 2&deg;C by 2100. The data is from the MESSAGEix-GLOBIOM_1.1 GP_NDC2030_T45 scenario.</li> <li><strong>Glasgow Pledges:</strong> &quot;Glasgow Pledges&quot; scenarios here are based on the pledges made by countries at the 2022 COP26 Glasgow Summit, and represent increased ambition, likely taking the world closer to below 2&deg;C in 2100, but still some distance away from the aspirations of 1.5&deg;C of the Paris Agreement. The data is from the MESSAGEix-GLOBIOM_1.1 GP_Glasgow scenario.</li> <li><strong>Glasgow Pledges+:</strong> &quot;Glasgow Pledges+&quot; scenarios drops the NDC pledges and expands mid-century strategy pledges to net-zero for all countries and regions. The data is from the MESSAGEix-GLOBIOM_1.1 GP_GlasgowP scenario.</li> <li><strong>Glasgow Pledges++:</strong> &quot;Glasgow Pledges++&quot; scenarios here aims at filling the gap between national mid-century strategies and the 1.5/2 &deg;C global scenarios. This scenario builds upon the Glasgow+ scenario and anticipates the action (net-zero target year defined for each region) in 5 or 10 years (depending on the model&rsquo;s time steps). &nbsp;The data is from the MESSAGEix-GLOBIOM_1.1 GP_GlasgowPP scenario.</li> </ul> <p><a href="#_ftnref1">[1]</a> Sferra, F. et al. 2021.

Development of a global inundation map at high spatial resolution from topographic downscaling of coarse-scale remote sensing data

<p><strong>Overview:</strong> The Global Inundation Extent from Multi-Satellites&nbsp;(GIEMS; Prigent et al. 2007,&nbsp;Papa et al. 2010) downscaled at 15 arc-second (GIEMS-D15; Fluet-Chouinard et al. 2015) was produced through the downscaling of the GIEMS database (natively at 0.25&deg;).&nbsp;&nbsp;The downscaling procedure predicts the location of surface water cover with an inundation ranking surface&nbsp;generated by bagged decision trees. The decision trees were trained on binary presence/absence of wetland in the GLC2000 global land cover map (Bartholom&eacute; &amp; Belward&nbsp;2005) and used 13 topographic and hydrographic predictors derived from the SRTM-derived HydroSHEDS database (Lehner, Verdin &amp; Jarvis 2008). The downscaling technique to three temporal aggregation of the GIEMS dataset representing&nbsp;three states of land surface inundation extents: mean annual minimum (MA<sub>Min</sub>;&nbsp;total area, 6.5 &times; 106 km<sup>2</sup>), mean annual maximum (MA<sub>Max</sub>; 12.1 &times; 106 km<sup>2</sup>), and long-term maximum (LT<sub>Max</sub>; 17.3 &times; 106 km<sup>2</sup>). The area of MAMin and MAMax from GIEMS were supplemented with the minimum area value from lakes, river and reservoirs from GLWD (Lehner &amp; D&ouml;ll 2004; classes 1,2,3). LTMax was corrected as the mean area from 3-year rolling maximum from GIEMS and the total wetland area from GLWD (classes 1-12). The accuracy of GIEMS-D15 reflects distribution errors introduced by the downscaling process as well as errors from the original satellite estimates. Yet, a&nbsp;comparison against independent regional wetland&nbsp;maps showed&nbsp;adequate agreement over&nbsp;large floodplains and wetlands. GIEMS-D15 offers a higher resolution delineation of inundated areas than originally offered by GIEMS, allowing for&nbsp;the assessment of global freshwater resources and the study of large floodplain and wetland ecosystems.</p> <p><strong>Projection:</strong> WGS84 (EPSG:4326)</p> <p><strong>Geographic extent:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Longitude: -180&deg; to 180&deg;</li> <li>Latitude: -56&deg; to 84&deg;</li> </ul> <p><strong>Spatial resolution: </strong>15 arc-second (500m at equator)</p> <p><strong>Legend</strong>&nbsp;(for discrete pixel values):</p> <ul> <li>0 = Upland</li> <li>1 = Mean Annual Minimum (MA<sub>Min</sub>)</li> <li>2 = Mean Annual Maximum (MA<sub>Max</sub>)</li> <li>3 = Long Term Maximum&nbsp;(LT<sub>Max</sub>)</li> </ul>
