Eco-Scarcity

Climate Hazards & Mitigation

Climate hazards and mitigation category include data and tools for estimating carbon sequestration in soils worldwide and for aggregating multiple climate hazards. Data in this category provide stand-alone climate risk evaluations that can be applied to many types of ecosystems services. For example, one dataset projects specific impacts that climate change will have on various economic sectors including agriculture, energy, water, and transportation.
