Atlas of Microclimate Development for Bohemian Forest Ecosystem, including the Effect of Forest Stands

The maps present estimated future microclimatic characteristics for 20-year periods (2021–2040 (“2030”), 2041–2060 (“2050”), 2061–2080 (“2070”), 2081–2100 (“2090”)) at 25 m resolution. They were produced by adding a multi-model anomaly to local microclimate maps of the reference period, which also incorporate future forest development simulated with the forest landscape growth model LANDIS-II (v7.1) using the PnET extension (v5.1). The anomaly is defined as the difference between the climatology of a given future 20-year period and the reference climatology (October 2019–September 2024; hydrological year = October–September). The multi-model estimate is reported as the median across models; model uncertainty is expressed as the interquartile range (IQR = Q75 − Q25). Projection data source: CMIP6 projections from the Copernicus Climate Data Store (CDS), dataset CMIP6 climate projections (projections-cmip6, DOI: 10.24381/cds.c866074c). SSP scenarios (Shared Socioeconomic Pathways) from the ScenarioMIP project: SSP2-4.5 (intermediate future emissions) and SSP5-8.5 (very high future emissions).
