Uncertainty Maps for Model-Based Global Climate Classification Systems

The dataset includes climate classification maps and their associated consensus maps for present climate and three future socio-economic pathways (SSPs). These maps represent the Earth's climate zones according to four well-established classification schemes: Holdridge, Köppen, Thornthwaite, and Whittaker. The data are based on Global Climate Model (GCM) simulations from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase six (CMIP6). For further information on the source archives of these climate classification maps, please refer to the 'Data Records' section in Navarro et al. (2025). If you use these maps in any publications, please cite Navarro et al. (2025). code.tar.gz This tar.gz contains the source code used to generate the results presented in the manuscript. GeoTiff.tar.gz This tar.gz contains GeoTIFF files for four climate classification schemes (Holdridge, Köppen, Thornthwaite, and Whittaker) along with corresponding consensus maps for present climate and three future SSPs. NetCDF.tar.gz This tar.gz contains NetCDF files for four climate classification schemes (Holdridge, Köppen, Thornthwaite, and Whittaker) along with corresponding consensus maps for present climate and three future SSPs. BIL.tar.gz This tar.gz contains BIL and HDR files for four climate classification schemes (Holdridge, Köppen, Thornthwaite, and Whittaker) along with corresponding consensus maps for present climate and three future SSPs.
