Global warming data.

Description

A dataset containing global warming data for 110 different climate models and/or scenarios from CMIP5. Additionally the results of a large glacier model for the high mountains of Asia (HMA) are included (Kraaijenbrink et al., 2017).

Temperature delta are provided between pre-industrial (PI, 1851-1880) and end of century (EOC, 2071-2100).

Glacier volume change is provided in percent between 2005 and EOC.
Total glacier mass in the region is 4754 Gt.

Format

A data frame with 110 rows and 7 variables:

gcm

General Circulation Model.

rcp

Representative Concentration Pathway.

dt_glob

Global temperature rise between PI and EOC.

dt_land

Temperature rise between PI and EOC for world's land masses.

dt_hma

Temperature rise for only the glaciers in HMA

dv_hma

EOC loss of glacier volume, given in percentage of their 2005 volume.

deg15scen

Models of the +1.5 °C scenario, i.e. 1.5 ± 0.1 °C at the EOC.
