ISIMIP Project released “ISIpedia”, the open climate-impacts encyclopedia

ISIpedia is the open climate-impacts encyclopedia released by the Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison Project (click here for more information about the ISIMIP). All results collected under the “future projections” category are based on simulations generated within the Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison Project. ISIpedia aims to provide public access to climate-impact science to generate a better understanding of climate related risks. The information ISIpedia provides is sorted according to three types of studies: 1) detection and attribution of observed impacts of climate change, 2) future projection of the impacts of climate change, and 3) impact model evaluation. The information is collected according to a “from the expert to the public” principle, i.e. scientists who have recently published a study on climate impacts approach the ISIpedia editorial team or are invited by the team to translate their own findings into an associated ISIpedia article that is then made accessible via this portal.
Each article published on ISIpedia needs a peer-reviewed scientific paper in the background. That means that the control of the scientific quality is ensured by the scientific review process organized by the journal where the original study has been published.
