From single projection to many possibilities: A new tool for climate risk assessment

Assessing how climate change will affect different regions usually requires running a complex chain of models. While this approach provides valuable insights, it is expensive and can cover only a limited set of scenarios and model runs. Together with partners, IIASA researchers have developed a faster alternative that uses available projections from Earth sy

The top 3

  1. Top Global Climate Change Risks: Climate change presents diverse and escalating threats across economic, health, and environmental sectors, necessitating comprehensive risk assessment strategies.
  2. Leading Innovators in Climate Prediction: Advancements in climate modeling are driven by key institutions and scientists continually refining projections and assessment tools.
  3. Most Vulnerable Regions to Climate Impacts: Specific geographic areas and ecosystems face disproportionately higher risks from climate change due to their unique vulnerabilities.
