Regional Climate Change Water Resources Demo

Demonstration Theme

Decision support client access to water resource and climate change data including IPCC Data Distribution Centers.

Areas of Interest (AOI)

• An area in state of Colorado, near Boulder.
• AOI-1 - about 10 degrees square to show several values of IPCC scenarios ~5 degree data
• AOI-2 - about 1 degree square to show higher resolution data

Scenario Script - Draft

• Display area of interest for context (SDSC CHUASI HIS Main Client and Demo Client)
• Base layers , e.g, roads, boundaries, Landsat imagery, etc.
• Others:
• Display the current situation of water resources
• Station layers: USGS NWIS, EPA STORET and NCDC ASOS networks
• Historical climatic variables (NARR at NCDC, BADC, Others?)
• Palmer Drought
• Socioeconomic layers (CIESIN)
• Drought layers NCDC
• Access detailed data for stations of interest (most vulnerable)
• Access WaterML to generate charts of hydrologic parameters corresponding with the climate dynamics variables
• Discover climate model prediction servers
• Search a catalog (using a GEO Web Portal Candidate?)
• Display climate model prediction layers
• IPCC Data Distribution Centre at BADC: SRES and IS92 Scenarios
• Compare current situation to predicted

• http://badcdev2.badc.rl.ac.uk/ddc-vis/wms/sres?VERSION=1.3.0&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetCapabilities

You will get a whole range of layers having names of the form 'model/variable'. The model term encodes both the model and the IPCC scenario that has been run.

US Census Socioeconomic Data from CIESIN

Population density WMS here:

http://beta.sedac.ciesin.columbia.edu/mapserver/map/USGRID_US?Service=WMS&Version=1.1.1&Request=GetCapabilities  

There are data descriptions for everything we have for the US here:

http://sedac.ciesin.columbia.edu/usgrid/downloads.jsp

See the catalog of variables link on the above page for details. Not all of these are available but if there are some that are especially useful I can stand them up in short order. If it is useful, we have more spatially detailed data for Boulder (the same variables as above) that I can stand up as well. -Greg Yetman
