The data set draws primarily from Local Action Plan for Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction (RAD GRK), and Medium Term Local Development Plans (RPJMD) of each province in Indonesia. These documents are obtained from Indonesian national and regional government agencies, including the Secretariat of...

This collection emerges from a collaboration of five leading research institutions: World Resources Institute (WRI), Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), Öko Institut, Renmin University, and The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI), based in the target countries. Researchers at...

The CAIT Paris Contributions Map was made available in 2014 to enables users to explore, compare, and assess countries climate committments in each country's Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDC). Countries are not submitting and updating their national climate committments through...

The dataset applies a consistent methodology to create a six-gas, multi-sector, and internationally comparable data set for 197 countries. It enables data analysis by allowing users to quickly narrow down by year, gas, country/state, and sector. Automatic calculations for percent changes from...

Global (i.e., climate-related) threats to the world's coral reefs were analyzed. These include: past thermal stress (i.e., warming seas and bleaching over the last decade), future thermal stress (ie., projections of future warming in 2030 and 2050); and ocean acidification (i.e., reduced ocean...

The CAIT Paris Contributions Map was made available in 2014 to enables users to explore, compare, and assess countries climate commitments in each country's Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDC). Countries are not submitting and updating their national climate commitments through...

The CAIT Projections module was made available in 2015 and provided ready access to emission projections for major emitters through the year 2100 (if data is available). All data is now available on Climate Watch. In addition to providing emissions data, this tool aims to increase the...

Climate Watch Historical GHG Emissions module enables data analysis by allowing users to quickly narrow down by year, gas, state, and sector. Automatic calculations for percent changes from prior year, per capita, per GDP, and cumulative number across years are also available. Users are presented...

Global climate models can provide valuable information to city decision makers for strategic planning, climate adaptation, risk management, and budgeting—but it can be difficult to glean from these models information that is directly suited to city scales and city problems. This dataset contains...

The structured data from the CAIT Pre-2020 Pledges Map enables users to explore, compare, and assess climate change mitigation pledges submitted by Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in 2009 and 2010. The information related to quantified economy-wide...

This data maps opportunities for Climate Vulnerable Forum countries to enhance their Nationally Determined Contribution by 2020.

The Global Power Plant Database is a comprehensive, open source database of power plants around the world. It centralizes power plant data to make it easier to navigate, compare and draw insights for one’s own analysis. The database covers approximately 35,000 power plants from 167 countries and...

This shapefile features the Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs) for 108 coral reef countries and territories classified according to an index of their reef dependence, adaptive capacity, and social vulnerability. Results are presented as quartiles, with 27 countries/territories classified in each of...

Threats from coastal development, marine-based pollution and damage, overfishing and destructive fishing, and watershed-based pollution were analyzed separately. These threats were integrated into the Integrated Local Threat index. Past thermal stress was integrated with local threats into the...

This dataset contains a breakdown of developed countries individual public contributions in public climate finance towards the $100 billion commitment between 2013-2018. This dataset was used in WRI’s technical note ‘A Breakdown of Developed Countries’ Public Climate Finance Contributions Towards...

The Tracker contains information on two types of renewables activities commonly being pursued by local governments in the United States: 1. Electricity purchases and transactions, such as on-site solar, community solar projects, off-site power purchase agreements (PPAs), and green tariff...

The Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS) delivers global MODIS-derived hotspots and fire locations. The active fire locations represent the center of a 1-kilometer pixel that is flagged by the MOD14/MYD14 Fire and Thermal Anomalies Algorithm as containing one or more fires...

This workbook contains data from a detailed review of the 2010-2012 fast-start finance (FSF) contributions of five countries reporting the largest FSF contributions (Germany, Japan, Norway, the UK, and the USA) and from a supplemental review of the remaining FSF contributions from 31 additional...

For the current scenario, we used hydrological data from 1960 through 1999 for generating flood inundations for 9 return periods, from 2-year flood to 1000-year flood, and 2010 GDP, population, and land use data for assessing flood impacts. For future projections, we used 5 GCMs (Global Climate...

This dataset presents information on the adaptation components of 86 countries’ NDCs submitted until June 30, 2021, in association with the working paper State of the Nationally Determined Contributions: Enhancing Adaptation Ambition. Nine NAPs submitted by the 86 countries during this time frame...
