<strong>The datasets were produced in the following article. When using the data, please use the following citation:</strong> Niva V, Kallio M, Muttarak R, Taka M, Varis O, Kummu M. 2021. Global migration is driven by the complex interplay between environmental and social factors. Environmental Research Letters. https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/ac2e86 The data include the following files: <strong>AC.tif </strong> Composite index computed based on the four AC variables by taking a mean over the respective variables: <strong>economy.tif</strong> Downscaled and min-max normalized income data. <strong>education.tif</strong> Min-max normalized education data. <strong>governance.tif</strong> Min-max normalized governance data. <strong>health.tif</strong> Min-max normalized health data. For all of the above data, 0 and 1 represent the lowest and highest <strong>capacity</strong>, respectively. <strong>ES.tif</strong> Composite index computed based on the four ES variables by taking a mean over the respective variables: <strong>foodProdScarcityScaled.tif</strong> Food production scarcity data based on food production data. <strong>droughtRiskScaled.tif</strong> Computed and scaled drought risk based on SPEI index. <strong>waterRiskScaled.tif</strong> Computed and scaled water risk data based on three water stress indices. For all of the above data 0 and 1 represent the lowest and highest <strong>stress</strong>, respectively. Kindly note that data for natural hazards is available at its source (please see the list below). <strong>class_raster.tif</strong> Spatial representation of the classification matrix. <strong>cntryID.gpkg</strong> Country polygons with country IDs. <strong>cntry_raster_masked.tif</strong> Country raster with country IDs. <strong>countriesRegionsZones.csv</strong> Country groups and countries.
