High Mountain Asia CMIP6 Monthly and Yearly Water Balance Projections, 2016-2099 for Parts of Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Pakistan V001

This High Mountain Asia (HMA) data set comprises a suite of monthly and yearly water balance model (WBM) projections for the years 2016 – 2099, covering parts of Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Pakistan (primarily the headwaters of the Amu Darya and Indus River basins).

Projections are available for 12 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) global climate models and two Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP 2-4.5 and SSP 5-8.5). The data were generated using the University of New Hampshire WBM.

A historical run is also available for the years 1980 through 2018, using as input ERA5 reanalysis temperature data and ensemble precipitation estimates developed for High Mountain Asia.
