Global 1-km present and future hourly anthropogenic heat flux

AH4GUC is a database which contains maps of hourly-representative anthropogenic heat emissions (AHE) representing the periods 2010s and 2050s. The AHE of 2050s represents a single future scenario based on RCP8.5 and SSP3 climate change pathways. This future “business-as-usual” scenario assumes minimal or no adaptation and mitigation measures implemented in all countries. Monthly-averaged and annual-averaged values representing the 2010s and 2050s are also provided. All files are available in single-band raster format (GeoTIFF format) are freely accessible through this Figshare repository and at a university-maintained server that contains the hourly data (access: Tokyo Institute of Technology, http://urbanclimate.tse.ens.titech.ac.jp/ or https://urbanclimate.tse.ens.titech.ac.jp/database/AHE/AH4GUC/). Each pixel contains integer formats of AHE in units of W per sq. m. per 100,000. GeoTIFFs can be further analyzed or process using any GIS software or programming tools, such as R or Python.<br>Files prefixed "AHE_2010_" and "AHE_2050_" correspond to anthropogenic heat emissions for 2010s and 2050s, respectively. Prefixes followed by "year" corresponds to annual averages. Prefixes followed by a two-digit number corresponds to monthly-averaged values with the two-digit number corresponding to the month (i.e. "01" - January, "02" - February, ..., "12" - December) <br>For further details regarding its construction, kindly refer to the following article in Scientific Data:<br>Varquez, A.C.G., Kiyomoto, S., Khanh, D.N. et al.
