Climate | Data.gov

Here you can find data related to climate change that can help inform and prepare America’s communities, businesses, and citizens. Initially, in this pilot phase, you can find data and resources related to coastal flooding and food resilience. Over time, you will be able to find additional data and tools relevant to other important climate-related impacts, including risks to human health, ecosystems, and energy infrastructure. Please share your feedback.

Launch of Water theme of Climate.Data.Gov

To help communities and individuals plan for the risks of climate-change-related impacts on water resources, the U.S. Government is releasing today a collection of datasets containing information relevant to this important issue. Select data are also being made available via mapping services on Geoplatform.gov. The resources provided here can be used to help answer a number of relevant questions, such as:

How are human and natural components of the hydrologic cycle changing?
How can communities and water managers plan for uncertain future conditions?
How will changing water resources affect food, energy, ecosystems, and human health?
