Summary
This LUH2-ISIMIP2b dataset was developed in support of the Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison Project 2b (ISIMIP2b) effort. The aim of the ISIMIP2b is to provide robust information about the impacts of 1.5°C global warming and related low-emission pathways. The LUH2 methodology was developed as a contribution to CMIP6 and LUMIP and builds upon past work from CMIP5 (Hurtt et al. 2020, Hurtt et al. 2019a, Hurtt et al. 2019b, Hurtt et al. 2011, Frieler et al., 2017). The land use and emissions scenarios were provided by the REMIND-MAgPIE Integrated Assessment Model using an SSP2 storyline.
There are 24 data files in NetCDF version 4 (.nc4) format with this dataset, including three files for each of four models employing two emission scenarios.

Dataset Overview
This dataset provides 0.25-degree gridded, global, annual estimates of fractional land use and land cover patterns for the period 2015-2100, designed to support the ISIMIP2b effort to assess the impacts of 1.5 °C global warming. Land use types, land use transitions, and cropland estimates of area fraction are provided and include detailed separation of primary and secondary natural vegetation into forest and non-forest sub-types, pasture into managed pasture and rangeland, and cropland into multiple crop functional types; all transitions between land use states per grid cell per year, including crop rotations, shifting cultivation, and wood harvest; and agriculture management including irrigation, synthetic nitrogen fertilizer, and biofuel management. The LUH2-ISIMIP2b datasets were derived using Land Use Harmonization 2 (LUH2) methodology (Hurtt et al. 2020, Hurtt et al. 2019a, Hurtt et al. 2019b, Hurtt et al. 2011, Frieler et al., 2017) and are based on land-use scenarios provided by the REMIND-MAgPIE Integrated Assessment Model using an SSP2 storyline along with RCP2.6 and RCP6.0 emissions scenarios. In contrast to the standard SSP scenarios, these land use changes additionally account for climate and atmospheric CO2 fertilization effects on the underlying patterns of potential crop yields, water availability, and terrestrial carbon content. This is achieved by using the LPJmL (Lund–Potsdam–Jena managed land) model forced with atmospheric CO2 concentrations and patterns of climate change generated from 4 different climate models (GFDL, HADGEM, IPSL, and MIROC) consistent with the 2 different RCP scenarios, resulting in a set of 8 different LUH2-ISIMIP2b datasets.

Related Dataset:
This current dataset (LUH2-ISIMIP2b) was specially created using the LUH2 technology (Hurtt et al. 2020, Hurtt et al. 2019a, Hurtt et al. 2019b, Hurtt et al. 2011, Frieler et al., 2017). LUH2 is the successor to the LUH1 dataset (below), also archived at the ORNL DAAC.
The 2014 LUH dataset provides fractional land use and land cover patterns annually for the period 1500-2100 for the globe at 0.5-degree (~50-km) spatial resolution. Land use categories of cropland, pasture, primary land, secondary (recovering) land, urban land, and underlying annual land-use transitions are included. Annual data on age and biomass density of secondary land, as well as annual wood harvest, are included for each grid cell.

Data File Information
There are 24 data files provided with this dataset in NetCDF version 4 (.nc4) format.
All files provide latitude, longitude, and time variables. Missing values are represented by 1.00E+20.
Outputs were based on
• two climate scenarios (RCP 2.6 and RCP 6.0)
That were driven by
• four climate models (GFDL, HADGEM, IPSL, or MIROC).
These outputs include
• three data types (states, transitions, and crop management).
Note that because the transitions files refer to the transitions between years (i.e., the changes that occur between year t and year t+1) there is one less time step (year) compared to the states and management files that refer to the state of the land surface during (or at some point during) year t+1.
Naming Convention
The files are named RCP#_MODEL_Z where
RCP# = RCP26 for RCP2.6 or RCP60 for RCP6.0 climate scenarios
MODEL = GFDL, HADGEM, IPSL, or MIROC climate models
Z = states, transitions, or management data types
Examples: RCP26_GFDL_transitions.nc4, RCP60_IPSL_management.nc4
Table 1. Data types and descriptions.
Data Type | Description | Naming Conventions |

Application and Derivation
The diversity of approaches and requirements among Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs) and Earth System Models (ESMs) for tracking land use change, along with the dependence of model projections on land use history, presents a challenge for effectively passing data between these communities and for smoothly transitioning from the historical estimates to future projections. This harmonized set of land use scenarios smoothly connects historical reconstructions of land use with future projections, in the format required by ESMs, providing an important resource for studies of human impacts on the past, present, and future Earth system.
Quality Assessment
These results, particularly the future estimates, must be considered uncertain and highly dependent on the inputs and assumptions used.
Data Acquisition, Materials, and Methods
Frieler et al. (2017) describe in detail the simulation protocol and scientific rationale for ISIMIP2b. Following is a brief synopsis.
The ISIMIP was initiated by the PIK and the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) and has since grown to involve over 100 modelling groups from around the world. The focus topic for ISIMIP2b is to provide robust information about the impacts of 1.5°C global warming and related low-emission pathways. In support of the ISIMIP2b effort these land-use datasets for the years 2015-2100 were developed using the LUH2 methodology. The data are "harmonized" with the LUH2 historical reconstructions and provided in a standard format for use in climate models. The LUH2 methodology was developed as a contribution to CMIP6 and LUMIP, it builds upon past work from CMIP5, and includes updated inputs, higher spatial resolution, more detailed land-use transitions, and the addition of important agricultural management layers.
The data are based on land-use scenarios provided by the REMIND-MAgPIE Integrated Assessment Model developed at PIK using an SSP2 storyline along with RCP2.6 and RCP6.0 emissions scenarios. In contrast to the standard SSP scenarios, the land use changes additionally account for climate and atmospheric CO2 fertilization effects on the underlying patterns of potential crop yields, water availability, and terrestrial carbon content. This is achieved by using the LPJmL model (jointly developed and maintained at PIK) forced with atmospheric CO2 concentrations and patterns of climate change generated from four climate models (GFDL, HADGEM, IPSL, and MIROC).
RCP Scenarios
RCP2.6 (also referred to as RCP3PD) represents a very low emission scenario and explores the feasibility of limiting climate change to less than 2°C by limiting radiative forcing to a peak of 3 W/m2 in mid-century, declining to 2.6 W/m2 in 2100.
RCP6.0 is a med-high emission pathway with mitigation actions taken late in the century to stabilize radiative forcing at 6 W/m2 after 2100 without ever exceeding that level.
Previous LUH Dataset
This LUH2-ISIMIP2b is a specially created dataset built upon the LUH2 technology. LUH2 is the successor dataset to LUH1.
The 2014 LUH1 dataset (Chini et al., 2014), also archived at the ORNL DAAC, provides fractional land use patterns annually for the years 1500 - 2100 for the globe at 0.5-degree (~50-km) spatial resolution. Land use categories of cropland, pasture, primary land, secondary (recovering) land, and urban land, and underlying annual land-use transitions, are included. Annual data on age and biomass density of secondary land, as well as annual wood harvest, are included for each grid cell.
Historical land use data for the years 1500–2005 are based on HYDE 3.1 and future land use projections for the period 2006–2100 came from four Integrated Assessment Model (IAM) scenarios which reach different levels of radiative forcing by the year 2100: MESSAGE (8.5 W/m2), AIM (6 W/m2), GCAM (4.5 W/m2), and IMAGE (2.6 W/m2) (Hurtt et al., 2011).
Data Access
These data are available through the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) Distributed Active Archive Center (DAAC).
