The NASA Earth Exchange (NEX) Global Daily Downscaled Projections (GDDP) dataset, or NEX-GDDP-CMIP6, was created to assist the science community in conducting studies of climate change impacts at local to regional scales and to enhance public understanding of possible future climate patterns at the spatial scale of individual towns, cities, and watersheds. The archive contains downscaled historical (1950 - 2014) and future (2015 - 2100) projections of [climate variables](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-022-01393-4/tables/2) such as humidity, precipitation, and near-surface air temperature, based on output from [Phase 6 of the Climate Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6)](https://www.wcrp-climate.org/wgcm-cmip/cmip-video). The downscaled products are provided at 0.25-degree horizontal resolution. The data are also available for four different future climate scenarios modeled as part of CMIP6. These scenarios take into account future radiative forcing levels (from low to high) as well as “Shared Socioeconomic Pathways” (SSPs), which are a collection of narratives that describe potential paths society could take to combat climate change. The SSPs range from a highly sustainable approach (SSP1) to a narrative where society continues to rely heavily on fossil fuel resources (SSP5). The four resulting combined scenarios are SSP126, SSP245, SSP370 and SSP585.
