Future landslide hazard dataset
Overview
A global dataset at 0.1° degrees resolution of three landslide hazard indicators from five climate models under three Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) scenarios from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sith Assessment report (AR6). The time resolution is annual from 1981 to 2100.
Specifications
| Specification | Description |
| Experiment | CMIP6 |
| Scenarios | Shared Socioeconomic Pathways SSP5-8.5, SSP2-4.5 and SSP1-2.6. |
| Climate Models | The 5 models selected by the ISIMIP initiative: IPSL-CM6A-LR GFDL-ESM4, UKESM1-0-LL MPI-ESM1-2-HR, MRI-ESM2-0. |
| Spatial Resolution | 0.1° x 0.1° Global |
| Temporal resolution | Annual from 1981 to 2100 |
| Indicators | The landslide danger indicators are based on NASA’s LHASA model: – Moderate hazard: number of days in a year with potential landslide occurrence over moderate hazard locations. – High Hazard: number of days in a year with potential landslide occurrence over high hazard locations. – Very high hazard: number of days in a year with potential landslide occurrence over very high hazard locations. |
| Format | Netcdf |
Supplementary information
The Landslide hazard is a danger category based index used by NASA to provide near-real-time evaluation of potential rainfall triggered landslide events through global landslide nowcasts. The Future Landslide Hazard indicators represent the number of days with potential landslide occurrences at global locations classified into one of five susceptibility categories: very low, low, moderate, high, and very high.
