IPCC AR6 WGI Sea Level Projections

These data sets contain the sea level projections associated with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Sixth Assessment Report. The dataset groups contain the full set of samples for the global projections (see IPCC AR6 WGI Sea Level Projections global) as well as summary relative sea level projections (see IPCC AR6 WGI Sea Level Projections regional and, without the AR6 estimate of background sea level process rates, see IPCC AR6 WGI Sea Level Projections regional novlm). The confidence output files correspond most directly to the figures and tables in the report.

The IPCC AR6 sea level change projection files are provided in a simplified format but represent a more complicated workflow involving combinations of multiple lines of evidence for the various individual contributors to sea level change. It's highly recommended using the data as provided in the confidence output files to remain consistent with the assessment in IPCC AR6 Chapter 9 (see IPCC AR6 WGI Sea Level Projections HowTos for details).


Required Acknowledgements and Citation: In order to document the impact of these sea level rise projections, users of the data are obligated to cite chapter 9 of WGI contribution to the IPCC AR6, the FACTS model description paper, and the version of the data set used. When using these data in a publication, please include the information provided in IPCC AR6 WGI Sea Level Projections Acknowledgments.

Regional projections can also be accessed through the NASA/IPCC Sea Level Projections Tool at https://sealevel.nasa.gov/ipcc-ar6-sea-level-projection-tool . See https://zenodo.org/communities/ipcc-ar6-sea-level-projections for additional related data sets.

Attribute description
sea_level_change
Descriptor

The level of sea level change since the AR6 reference period. Values have units of millimeters. Values of -32768 should be

considered missing data.; unit: mm

Attribute description
sea_level_change_rate
Descriptor

The rate of sea level change. Rates are 10-

year average rates with units of millimeters

per year. These are stored in the netCDF file as tenths of a millimeter per year with a

scale factor of 0.1 which is generally

automatically applied when reading in the data. Rates of -3276.8 should be considered

missing data.; unit: mm yr-1
