Abstract:

This dataset contains improved population data available as secondary population input data for ISIMIP2b (https://www.isimip.org, Frieler et al. 2017).

While national and global population in ISIMIP2 seem consistent between historical and scenario datasets, it turns out that a given country population may be distributed differently across the grid cells corresponding to the given country, causing discontinuities in the individual grid cells population time series.

To overcome this issue and obtain spatially consistent historical and scenario data, the Bclimate group at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel implemented a fix. The code is available at https://github.com/VUB-HYDR/isimip2b_population_correction. See also #36.
