This poster is part of the Fifth National Climate Assessment (NCA5) poster series. The NCA5 Atlas is a digital data viewer that was developed as an extension of the national report text and figures. The Atlas includes a range of impact-relevant climate variables, such as “days over 95° F” and “days with over 1 inch of precipitation.” The Atlas variables were produced with the same methodology as the downscaled climate data in the NCA5 report. The Atlas also includes interactive features for users to generate their own regional and local maps from a selection of climate scenarios and time periods, or by global warming levels. For more detailed and varied data sources, the Atlas links to other climate products such as the NOAA State Climate Summaries and the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP) Climate Indicators. The AMS community is invited to explore the NCA5 Atlas as well as the full NCA5 report. NCA5 is developed by the USGCRP and is scheduled for release in late 2023.
