The property level flood risk statistics generated by the First Street Foundation Flood Model Version 2.0 come in CSV format.
The data that is included in the CSV includes:
An FSID; a First Street ID (FSID) is a unique identifier assigned to each location.
The latitude and longitude of a parcel as well as the zip code, census block group, census tract, county, congressional district, and state of a given parcel.
The property’s Flood Factor as well as data on economic loss.
The flood depth in centimeters at the low, medium, and high CMIP 4.5 climate scenarios for the 2, 5, 20, 100, and 500 year storms this year and in 30 years.
Data on the cumulative probability of a flood event exceeding the 0cm, 15cm, and 30cm threshold depth is provided at the low, medium, and high climate scenarios for this year and in 30 years.
Information on historical events and flood adaptation, such as ID and name.
This dataset includes First Street's aggregated flood risk summary statistics. The data is available in CSV format and is aggregated at the congressional district, county, and zip code level. The data allows you to compare FSF data with FEMA data. You can also view aggregated flood risk statistics for various modeled return periods (5-, 100-, and 500-year) and see how risk changes due to climate change (compare FSF 2020 and 2050 data). There are various Flood Factor risk score aggregations available including the average risk score for all properties (flood factor risk scores 1-10) and the average risk score for properties with risk (i.e. flood factor risk scores of 2 or greater). This is version 2.0 of the data and it covers the 50 United States and Puerto Rico. There will be updated versions to follow.
If you are interested in acquiring First Street flood data, you can request to access the data here. More information on First Street's flood risk statistics can be found here and information on First Street's hazards can be found here.

A complete description of the dataset is given by Jones et al. (2023). Key information is provided below.
Background
A dataset describing the global warming response to national emissions CO2, CH4 and N2O from fossil and land use sources during 1851-2021.
National CO2 emissions data are collated from the Global Carbon Project (Andrew and Peters, 2024; Friedlingstein et al., 2024).
National CH4 and N2O emissions data are collated from PRIMAP-hist (HISTTP) (Gütschow et al., 2024).
We construct a time series of cumulative CO2-equivalent emissions for each country, gas, and emissions source (fossil or land use). Emissions of CH4 and N2O emissions are related to cumulative CO2-equivalent emissions using the Global Warming Potential (GWP*) approach, with best-estimates of the coefficients taken from the IPCC AR6 (Forster et al., 2021).
Warming in response to cumulative CO2-equivalent emissions is estimated using the transient climate response to cumulative carbon emissions (TCRE) approach, with best-estimate value of TCRE taken from the IPCC AR6 (Forster et al., 2021, Canadell et al., 2021). 'Warming' is specifically the change in global mean surface temperature (GMST).
The data files provide emissions, cumulative emissions and the GMST response by country, gas (CO2, CH4, N2O or 3-GHG total) and source (fossil emissions, land use emissions or the total).
Data records: overview
The data records include three comma separated values (.csv) files as described below.
All files are in ‘long’ format with one value provided in the Data column for each combination of the categorical variables Year, Country Name, Country ISO3 code, Gas, and Component columns.
Component specifies fossil emissions, LULUCF emissions or total emissions of the gas.
Gas specifies CO2, CH4, N2O or the three-gas total (labelled 3-GHG).
Country ISO3 codes are specifically the unique ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 codes of each country.
Data records: specifics
Data are provided relative to 2 reference years (denoted ref_year below): 1850 and 1991. 1850 is a mutual first year of data spanning all input datasets. 1991 is relevant because the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change was operationalised in 1992.
EMISSIONS_ANNUAL_{ref_year-20}-2023.csv: Data includes annual emissions of CO2 (Pg CO2 year-1), CH4 (Tg CH4 year-1) and N2O (Tg N2O year-1) during the period ref_year-20 to 2023. The Data column provides values for every combination of the categorical variables. Data are provided from ref_year-20 because these data are required to calculate GWP* for CH4.
EMISSIONS_CUMULATIVE_CO2e100_{ref_year+1}-2023.csv: Data includes the cumulative CO2 equivalent emissions in units Pg CO2-e100 during the period ref_year+1 to 2023 (i.e. since the reference year). The Data column provides values for every combination of the categorical variables.
GMST_response_{ref_year+1}-2023.csv: Data includes the change in global mean surface temperature (GMST) due to emissions of the three gases in units °C during the period ref_year+1 to 2023 (i.e. since the reference year). The Data column provides values for every combination of the categorical variables.

Data description
The FAOSTAT Temperature Change domain disseminates statistics of mean surface temperature change by country, with annual updates. The current dissemination covers the period 1961–2023. Statistics are available for monthly, seasonal and annual mean temperature anomalies, i.e., temperature change with respect to a baseline climatology, corresponding to the period 1951–1980. The standard deviation of the temperature change of the baseline methodology is also available. Data are based on the publicly available GISTEMP data, the Global Surface Temperature Change data distributed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Goddard Institute for Space Studies (NASA-GISS).
Statistical concepts and definitions
Statistical standards: Data in the Temperature Change domain are not an explicit SEEA variable. Nonetheless, country and regional calculations employ a definition of “Land area” consistent with SEEA Land Use definitions, specifically SEEA CF Table 5.11 “Land Use Classification” and SEEA AFF Table 4.8, “Physical asset account for land use.” The Temperature Change domain of the FAOSTAT Agri-Environmental Indicators section is compliant with the Framework for the Development of Environmental Statistics (FDES 2013), contributing to FDES Component 1: Environmental Conditions and Quality, Sub-component 1.1: Physical Conditions, Topic 1.1.1: Atmosphere, climate and weather, Core set/ Tier 1 statistics a.1.
Statistical unit: Countries and Territories.

Climate change is one of the important issues that face the world in this technological era. The best proof of this situation is the historical temperature change. You can investigate if any hope there is for stopping global warming :)
Can you find any correlation between temperature change and any other variable? (Using ISO3 codes for merging any other countries' data sets possible.)
Prediction of temperature change: there is also an overall world temperature change in the country list as 'World'.

Precipitation data were collected from a ridgetop climate station east of Niwot
Ridge (B-1 @ 2591 m) throughout the year using a chart recorder. Initially,
instrumentation consisted of an 8-inch metal rain gauge with the receiving rim about
3 feet above the ground and measurements were made on an approximately weekly basis.
More recently, instrumentation consisted of a Fergusson-type weighing rain gauge.
Precipitation was caught in a bucket containing ethylene glycol (to melt snow) and
light oil (to prevent evaporation). As the weight of the bucket increased, the pen
moved up via a spring mechanism and recorded on a rotating chart. Precipitation was
recorded on a continuous basis.

Tropical forest dynamics and composition have changed over recent decades, but the proximate drivers of these changes remain unclear. Investigations into these trends have focused on increasing drought stress, CO2, temperature, and fires, whereas convective storms are generally overlooked. We argue that existing literature provides clear support for the importance of storms as drivers of forest change. We reanalyze the largest plot-based study of tropical forest carbon dynamics to show that lightning frequency – an indicator of storm activity – strongly predicts forest carbon storage and residence time, and its inclusion improves model fit and weakens evidence for effects of high temperatures. Convective storm activity has increased 5-25% per decade over the past half century. Extrapolating from historic trends, we estimate that storms likely contribute ca. 50% of the reported increases in biomass mortality across Amazonia, with all realistic combinations of assumptions indicating a possible range of 12-118%. Spatial variation in storm activity shows weak relationships with drought, demonstrating that forests can experience high drought stress, high storm activity, or both. Accordingly, we hypothesize that convective storms are amongst the most important drivers tropical forest change, and as such, they require significant research investment to avoid misguiding science, policy, and management.File and folder list, includes:amazon.zip: This folder contains all of the data for producing maps of storm activity and drought stress across the Amazon region and adjacent forests.

Dataset Description This dataset contains aggregated meteorological variables for U.S. counties and ZIP Code Tabulation Areas (ZCTAs) derived from the gridMET dataset. The gridMET product combines high-resolution spatial climate data (e.g., temperature, precipitation, humidity) from the PRISM Climate Group with daily temporal attributes and additional meteorological variables from the NLDAS-2 regional reanalysis dataset. The final product includes daily meteorological data at approximately 4km x 4km spatial resolution across the contiguous United States. This dataset has been processed to provide spatial (ZCTA, County) and temporal (daily, yearly) aggregations for broader climate analysis. This dataset was created to support climate and public health research by providing ready-to-use, high-resolution meteorological data aggregated at county and ZCTA levels. This allows for efficient linking with health and socio-demographic data to explore the impacts of climate on public health. Contributors: Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, NSAPH (National Studies on Air Pollution and Health) The data is organized by geographic unit (County and ZCTA) and temporal scale (daily, yearly). The dataset is structured to facilitate the computation of climate exposure variables for health impact studies. A data processing pipeline was used to generate this dataset.

Background: Climate change effect on flora and fauna has been scientifically documented, but the effect on North American venomous snakebites is unknown. The objectives were to examine Californian snakebite incidence and correlate with weather patterns and climate changes. Methods: A retrospective analysis of snakebites reported to the Californian Poison Control System from 1 September 1997 to 30 September 2017. Venomous snakebite reports were aggregated by caller zip code, and correlated per county with weather data, air temperature, precipitation, population data, eco-regions, and land characteristics. Time series decomposition by seasonality and trend, regression, and autocorrelation were used to assess association between climate variables and incidence. Results: There were 5365 reported venomous snakebites during the study period, with a median age of 37 years (22–51) with 76% male (p
Local climate zones have been developed in the climatology field to characterize the landscape surrounding climate monitoring stations, toward adjusting for local landscape influences on measured temperature trends. For example, a station surrounded by tall buildings may be influenced by the urban heat island effect compared to a station in an agricultural area. The local climate zone classification system was developed by Iain Stewart and Tim Oke at the University of British Columbia. The classification scheme has been adopted by the World Urban Database Access and Tools Portal (WUDAPT) project, which aims to produce local climate zone maps for the entire world at a scale of ~ 100m. Local climate zones take building and vegetation type and height into account, and therefore serve as indicators of urban form, from dense urban (high building with little vegetation) to industrial/commercial (large lowrise buildings with paved areas) and natural (dense trees, low plants, water). How local climate zones are related to human health is a new area of research.CANUE staff and students worked in collaboratation with WUDAPT researchers to map local climate zones for Canada, using scripts developed in Google Earth Engine and applied to LandSat imagery for key time periods. Each postal code has been assigned to one of 14 local climate zone classes. In adition, seven groups have been created by aggregating similar local climate zones, and the percentage of group in the neighbourhood (1km2) around each postal code has been calculated.

Predicting effects of climate change on plant disease is critical for protecting ecosystems and food production. Here, we show how disease pressure responds to short-term weather, historical climate, and weather anomalies by compiling a global database (4339 plant–disease populations) of disease prevalence in both agricultural and wild plant systems. We hypothesized that weather and climate would play a larger role in disease in wild versus agricultural plant populations, which the results supported. In wild systems, disease prevalence peaked when temperature was 2.7°C warmer than the historical average for the same time of year. We also found evidence of a negative interactive effect between weather anomalies and climate in wild systems, consistent with the idea that climate maladaptation can be an important driver of disease outbreaks. Temperature and precipitation had relatively little explanatory power in agricultural systems, though we observed a significant positive effect of curr..., , , # Impacts of weather anomalies and climate on plant disease

A complete description of the dataset is given by Jones et al. (2023). Key information is provided below. Background A dataset describing the global warming response to national emissions CO2, CH4 and N2O from fossil and land use sources during 1851-2021. National CO2 emissions data are collated from the Global Carbon Project (Andrew and Peters, 2023; Friedlingstein et al., 2023). National CH4 and N2O emissions data are collated from PRIMAP-hist (HISTTP) (Gütschow et al., 2023). We construct a time series of cumulative CO2-equivalent emissions for each country, gas, and emissions source (fossil or land use). Emissions of CH4 and N2O emissions are related to cumulative CO2-equivalent emissions using the Global Warming Potential (GWP*) approach, with best-estimates of the coefficients taken from the IPCC AR6 (Forster et al., 2021). Warming in response to cumulative CO2-equivalent emissions is estimated using the transient climate response to cumulative carbon emissions (TCRE) approach, with best-estimate value of TCRE taken from the IPCC AR6 (Forster et al., 2021, Canadell et al., 2021). 'Warming' is specifically the change in global mean surface temperature (GMST). The data files provide emissions, cumulative emissions and the GMST response by country, gas (CO2, CH4, N2O or 3-GHG total) and source (fossil emissions, land use emissions or the total). Data records: overview The data records include three comma separated values (.csv) files as described below. All files are in ‘long’ format with one value provided in the Data column for each combination of the categorical variables Year, Country Name, Country ISO3 code, Gas, and Component columns. Component specifies fossil emissions, LULUCF emissions or total emissions of the gas. Gas specifies CO2, CH4, N2O or the three-gas total (labelled 3-GHG). Country ISO3 codes are specifically the unique ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 codes of each country. Data records: specifics Data are provided relative to 2 reference years (denoted ref_year below): 1850 and 1991. 1850 is a mutual first year of data spanning all input datasets. 1991 is relevant because the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change was operationalised in 1992. EMISSIONS_ANNUAL_{ref_year-20}-2022.csv: Data includes annual emissions of CO2 (Pg CO2 year-1), CH4 (Tg CH4 year-1) and N2O (Tg N2O year-1) during the period ref_year-20 to 2022. The Data column provides values for every combination of the categorical variables. Data are provided from ref_year-20 because these data are required to calculate GWP* for CH4. EMISSIONS_CUMULATIVE_CO2e100_{ref_year+1}-2022.csv: Data includes the cumulative CO2 equivalent emissions in units Pg CO2-e100 during the period ref_year+1 to 2022 (i.e. since the reference year). The Data column provides values for every combination of the categorical variables. GMST_response_{ref_year+1}-2022.csv: Data includes the change in global mean surface temperature (GMST) due to emissions of the three gases in units °C during the period ref_year+1 to 2022 (i.e. since the reference year). The Data column provides values for every combination of the categorical variables. Accompanying Code Code is available at: https://github.com/jonesmattw/National_Warming_Contributions . The code requires Input.zip to run (see README at the GitHub link). Further info: Country Groupings We also provide estimates of the contributions of various country groupings as defined by the UNFCCC: Annex I countries (number of countries, n = 42) Annex II countries (n = 23) economies in transition (EITs; n = 15) the least developed countries (LDCs; n = 47) the like-minded developing countries (LMDC; n = 24). And other country groupings: the organisation for economic co-operation and development (OECD; n = 38) the European Union (EU27 post-Brexit) the Brazil, South Africa, India and China (BASIC) group. See COUNTRY_GROUPINGS.xlsx for the lists of countries in each group.
Nowcast is a representation of present conditions for any location at any point in time. OnPoint Weather is described exactly as it sounds, weather data for any location at any point in time. Unlike other providers who rely on singular inputs that in many instances may be many miles away from your location of interest to be meaningful or actionable, Weather Source ingests all of the best weather sensing inputs available including:
Airport observation stations NOAA & NWS data Satellites Radar IoT Devices and other sensor information Telematics Weather analyses and model outputs
Weather Source unifies and homogenizes the inputs on our high resolution global grid. The globally consistent OnPoint Grid covers every land mass in the world and up to 200 miles offshore. Each grid point - millions in total - represents a “virtual” weather station with a unique OnPoint ID from which weather data can be mapped to any lat/lon coordinates or specified geographically bounded areas such as:
Census tract/block County/parish or state Designated Market Area (DMA) ZIP/Postal Code
All Weather Source data is available in hourly or daily format. Daily format includes minimum and maximum values as well as daily averages for each supported weather parameter. * Purchasing a subscription through Mobito will provide instant access to all Weather Source tiles and resources listed in the Mobito Marketplace including historical, forecast and climatology subject to the subscription tier purchased.
Precipitation data were collected on a daily time-scale from the C-1 climate station (3018 m) since 1952. Over time various circumstances have led to days with missing values. These values were estimated from nearby climate stations.

A value of 40% means that the standard deviation is 160mm (40% = (160/400)*100), and that area would see annual rainfall totals of between 240 and 540 mm in two-thirds of all years. In the remaining third of all years, annual rainfall totals would be below 240 or above 540 mm.Logical consistency report:UnknownSpatial reference information: EPSG:900999Metadata date: 2008-07-09Metadata date type: creationMetadata contact name: Namibia Statistics AgencyMetadata contact role code: pointOfContactMetadata contact person: Nevel Ngahahe-HangeroMetadata contact address postal code:P.
