<p style="text-align: justify;">This dataset provides sub-national indicators on 2030-2060 projections by scenario on air temperature, hot days, icing days, tropical nights, total precipitation and extreme precipitation days in FUAs and Cities.</p> <h3>Data sources and methodology</h3> <div class="text-gray-500 px-6">Projections are based on NASA NEX-GDDP CMIP6 data, which provides average air temperature projections at a 0.25° spatial resolution for different scenarios - Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs).</div> <div> <ul class="list-disc px-10"> <li><strong> Hot days refer to days during which the maximum temperature is higher than 35°C) </li> <li><strong> Tropical nights refer to nights during which the minimum temperature is higher than 20°C. </li> <li><strong> Icing days are defined as days during which the maximum temperature is lower than 0°C. </li> <li><strong>Extreme precipitation days are defined as days during which the total precipitation is higher than 20 mm. </li> </ul> </div> <div class="text-gray-500 px-6"> </div> <div class="text-gray-500 px-6">SSPs are climate scenarios up to 2100 that model how socio‑economic factors may change over the next century. These scenarios are combined with Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs), which outline different greenhouse gas (GHG) concentration levels and their radiative forcings.
