NASA Earth Exchange Global Daily Downscaled Projections

The NEX-GDDP-CMIP6 dataset provides global, bias-corrected daily climate projections at 0.25° (~25 km) spatial resolution. It is derived from simulations performed under the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6), developed to support the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). The dataset includes both historical (1950–2014) and future (2015–2100) scenarios based on two of the Tier 1 Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5).

Dataset details:

It offers downscaled projections for key climate variables such as air temperature (minimum, maximum, mean), precipitation, humidity, surface radiation, and wind speed. Projections are available for three scenarios (historicalSSP2-4.5, and SSP5-8.5) and include key climate variables such as temperature, precipitation, humidity, radiation, and wind speed.
