Gridded socio-economic capitals for the SSPs

Overview This repository contains global gridded projections of 6 socioeconomic capitals for the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways. A central goal of this data is to enable improved modelling of the human dimensions of the SSPs, particularly in a coupled socio-environmental context. Key: Health and education are the relevant indices from the human development index; The Gini Coefficient is a measure of relative inequality; MA = Market access (after Verburg et al., 2011); WAP = Working age population; TES = total energy supply. Meta data Data are presented at 0.25 degree resolution. They are provided in 10-yearly intervals from 2020. 1km2 projections of working age population, total energy supply and the Gini coefficient are also made available via the Open Science Foundation: OSF | Global_SSP_Database1_2020-2100_1km; OSF | Global_SSP_Database2_2020-2100_1km; OSF | Global_SSP_Database3_2020-2100_1km; OSF | Global_SSP_Database4_2020–2100_1km Citation and contact information A paper describing these data is currently in review.
