Summary

Abstract: The Global 15x15 Minute Grids of the Downscaled GDP Based on the Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES) B2 Scenario, 1990 and 2025, are geospatial distributions of GDP (Gross Domestic Product) per unit area (GDP densities). These global grids were generated using the Country-level GDP and Downscaled Projections Based on the SRES B2 Scenario, 1990-2100 dataset, and CIESIN's Gridded Population ...

Purpose: The purpose is to provide gridded GDP data on country-level downscaled projections Based on the SRES B2 marker scenarios.
