Data Announcement

New data set release: High Mountain Asia Daily 5km Landslide Hazard Indicator, Version 1

High Mountain Asia Daily 5km Landslide Hazard Indicator, Version 1 is now available at the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC). This data set projects the daily hazard of rainfall-triggered landslides in the High Mountain Asia region from 2015 through 2100, at 5 km resolution. Projections are provided for two Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs)—SSP2-4.5 and SSP5‑8.5—based on temperature and precipitation projections from a 30-member ensemble climate model. Landslide hazard is represented by a landslide hazard indicator (LHI), computed with a machine learning model trained on historical temperatures and precipitation and a catalog of documented landslides. The historical LHIs used to train the model are available as a separate record.
