Overview
The Climate Resilience Information System (CRIS) provides a variety of historical observations and future projections of a variety of decision-relevant thresholds of temperature and precipitation.
LOCA2 and STAR-ESDM are two downscaled climate projection datasets covering the Contiguous United States (CONUS) chosen for inclusion in the 5th U.S. National Climate Assessment. These datasets include 16 models along with a weighted ensemble for the scenarios SSP2-4.5, SSP3-7.0 and SSP5-8.5. The precipitation and temperature variables were processed into thresholds by the NOAA Technical Support Unit.
Livneh and nClimGrid are gridded observed historical climatology data that were used in the LOCA2 and STAR-ESDM downscaling process. The original Livneh and nClimGrid daily temperature and precipitation observations have been converted to the same series of thresholds as LOCA2 and STAR.
Details on thresholds, models, scenarios, time, and processing methodologies can be found at https://cris.climate.gov/pages/about-the-data
