UKCP18 Global Projections at 60km Resolution for 1900-2100

Global climate model projections for the CMIP5 RCP8.5 emissions scenario produced as part of the UK Climate Projection 2018 (UKCP18) project. Data has been produced by the UK Met Office Hadley Centre, and provides information on changes in 21st century climate for the UK, helping to inform adaptation to a changing climate.

The set of 28 projections is a combination of 15 coupled model simulations produced by the Met Office Hadley Centre, and 13 coupled simulations from CMIP5 contributed by different climate modelling centres.

This data set provides information on changes in climate across the entire globe from 1900 to 2100 for RCP8.5. Each projection provides an example of climate variability in a changing climate, which is consistent across many climate variables at different times and spatial locations.
