ClimaScope 2.0 serves as a comprehensive data portal for climate researchers, providing access to vital climate change data and impact models. Hosted at the Tropical Data Hub (TDH) of James Cook University, researchers can retrieve a variety of climate datasets in multiple formats, including CSV and GeoTIFF, for their models. The system facilitates querying both climate data and impact assessments, allowing users to analyze the potential effects of climate change on sectors like agriculture and ecosystems. ClimaScope 2.0 empowers decision-makers to prepare strategies for a climate-altered future.

CLIMASCOPE 2.0 HOW IT CAN SERVE AS ERMITAGE DATA PORTAL Jeff Price, World Wildlife Fund US, Rachel Warren, Tyndall Centre
CIAS 2.0Basic Data Flow Climate Data from CIAS-Tyndall (Tyndall Climate Change Centre) is deposited in the Tropical Data Hub (TDH – James Cook University). DOI provided for all data Researchers can obtain the data for their own uses. Data is also transferred to a series of impacts models not requiring feedbacks. Results from models are transferred back to the TDH. Users can query climate change data, climate change impacts data or both. CIAS Data (TDH)
ERMITAGE Data into a Data/outputs system CIAS -TDH Researchers can download the climate data in many different formats to use in their own models (climgenascii, csv, esri-ascii, GeoTIFF, netcdf
Downscaled climate, from MAGICC6 & ClimGEN or GENIE LPJ output: water stress, ecosystems, agricultural yields MagPIE output: land use, agricultural production, etc Economic outputs (from TIAM, REMINDR, GEMINI-E3) CIAS -TDH These models then create their own layers that are sent back to the TDH
Users then query ClimaScope 2.0 to help them determine which way to go – And how to start preparing for a climate changed world Which policies help avoid the most impacts TDH
