Expanding the CHELSA Bioclimate Projection Collection
The CHELSA bioclimate projections in the Living Atlas have been incredibly popular with the GIS community, and now we have enhanced the collection to include Growing Degree Days above 10 °C, Net Primary Productivity, Snow Cover Days, and Snow Water Equivalent.
The new layers provide crucial insights into the future impact of climate change on ecosystems and human wellbeing. The new layers include projections for the early, mid, and late 21st century under several greenhouse gas scenarios (SSPs). As we continue to expand and refine our data collection, we invite everyone to leverage this resource for their work in climate science and environmental management.
To learn more about accessing the layer and to see change over time examples, check out this blog by @EmilyMeriam1 and Raf Antwerpen.
