Combined Effects of Future Urban Growth and Climate Change on Irrigation Water Demand in Central Arizona

  • 1. Arizona State University

Description

This dataset contains the simulation results of the combined effects of future urban growth and climate change on irrigation water use in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area, central Arizona. The simulation is conducted with the Variable Infiltration Capacity (VIC) model at 1-km, hourly resolution from 1981-2100 and aggregated to 30-yr average in this dataset. 

The 30-yr average results are compressed and organized into three files: Baseline, ICLUS2050, and ICLUS2100. The Baseline file contains results using the historical land cover map (year 2010). The ICLUS2050 and ICLUS2100 contain results using future land cover maps. The filename of modeling results contains the associated land cover and climate change scenario as follows: "fluxes.irri.ICLUS_$YEAR_$LCSCE.$CLSCE.$GCM.nc", where $YEAR is the year of land cover change projection (2050 or 2100), $LCSCE is the land cover change scenario (SSP2 or SSP5), $CLSCE is the climate change scenario (RCP45 or RCP85), and $GCM is the GCM used (eight in total)
