City-Scale, City-Relevant Climate Hazard Indicators Under 1.5°C, 2.0°C, and 3.0°C of Global Warming
The document introduces a data set providing 14 city-relevant climate hazard indicators for 996 large cities, based on NEX-GDDP-CMIP6 downscaled climate simulations. It compares a 1994-2014 historical baseline against three warming scenarios (1.5°C, 2.0°C, and 3.0°C) to assist city decision-makers in strategic planning and risk management. Key findings indicate that at 3.0°C of warming, cities will experience heatwaves that are 28% longer and 25% more frequent on average than at 1.5°C, alongside increased energy demand for cooling and higher transmission risks for arboviruses.
