  • Climate Portraits (Opens in a new Window)

    Climate Portraits contains historically observed and future modelled climate indicators for various regions of Quebec for 2041-2070 as well as 2071-2100 horizon years. Moderate and high emissions scenarios are available and indicators can be mapped, graphed, or presented in tabular form. Indicators are reported as annual and/or seasonal averages over the horizon period, and include: average, maximum and minimum daily temperature, total precipitation, freeze-thaw events, growing degree days, days over 30C, and maximum 5-day precipitation. Projected climate indicators are compared to historical observations graphically and in tabular form. Data is available for download in csv and json formats.

    ClimateBC_Map (Opens in a new Window)

    ClimateBC_Map is a tool that extracts and downscales PRISM 1971-2000 monthly climate normal data and monthly solar radiation normal data (800 x 800 m) to scale-free point locations, and calculates seasonal and annual climate variables for specific locations in British Columbia based on latitude, longitude and elevation (optional). Climate projections are available for Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5 under models for the 2025, 2055, and 2085 time periods. Data are spatially projected onto a map, and could be appended onto a csv file for download.

    ClimateWizard (Opens in a new Window)

    ClimateWizard is a web based program that allows users to view historic temperature and rainfall maps for anywhere in the world, view future predictions of temperature and rainfall around the world, and view and download climate change maps. It enables technical and non-technical audiences alike to access climate change information and visualize the impacts anywhere on Earth. It allows the user to choose a geographic region and both assess how climate has changed over time and to project what future changes are predicted to occur in a given area. Historical and future data are available as gridded data.

    Daily Gridded Meteorological Datasets (Opens in a new Window)

    Daily Gridded Meteorological Datasets are gridded meteorological forcing datasets that include observed daily station data interpolated to a useful resolution as target datasets for statistical downscaling and hydrologic modelling. Common variables include minimum and maximum temperature, and precipitation. The datasets hosted on this portal are all based on station data, but differ with respect to the selection of stations, their domains, resolution, record length and gridding methodology.
