Data sources
The analysis is based on 50 climate model projections from the 'Coupled Model
Inter-comparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5)' under the RCP8.5 climate scenario to calculate Low, Medium and High Impact scenarios, which correspond to the 10th, 50th and 90th percentiles of each hazard for each city.-
