About California Climate Commons

The California Climate Commons is a web-based data catalog that aggregates climate change datasets relevant to natural resource conservation planning in California. It organizes resources into categories including downscaled climate models, hydrological data, land cover, sea-level rise projections, and conservation prioritization materials. Some datasets in the catalog cover regions beyond California, including parts of Oregon, Nevada, and Arizona.
