Data for "Elevated urban energy risks due to climate-driven biophysical feedbacks"

This dataset contains the global multi-model urban climate and energy projections from Li et al. (2024), "Elevated urban energy risks due to climate-driven biophysical feedbacks", published in Nature Climate Change. It contains global monthly mean projections of urban 2-meter air temperature, and urban cooling and heating energy fluxes derived from 25 Earth system models (ESMs) participating in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6). Details about how this dataset was generated are described in the article. This dataset may be useful for multiple communities interested in future energy risks, climate change impacts and vulnerability, and climate-sensitive adaptation and energy planning.
