Project: IPCC Assessment Report 5 and Coupled Model Intercomparison Project data sets - These data belong to two projects: 1) to the Assessment Report No 5 of the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC-AR5) and 2) to the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project No 5 (CMIP5). CMIP5 is executed by the Program for Climate Model Diagnosis and Intercomparison (PCMDI) on behalf of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP). Most of the data is replicated between the three data nodes at the World Data Centre for Climate (WDCC), the British Atmospheric Data Centre (BADC), and the PCMDI. The project embraces the simulations with about 30 climate models of about 20 institutes worldwide. Summary: rcp85 is an experiment of the CMIP5 - Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 ( https://pcmdi.llnl.gov/mips/cmip5 ). CMIP5 is meant to provide a framework for coordinated climate change experiments for the next five years and thus includes simulations for assessment in the AR5 as well as others that extend beyond the AR5. 4.2 rcp85 (4.2 RCP8.5) - Version 1: Future projection (2006-2100) forced by RCP8.5. RCP8.5 is a representative concentration pathway which approximately results in a radiative forcing of 8.5 W m-2 at year 2100, relative to pre-industrial conditions. RCPs are time-dependent, consistent projections of emissions and concentrations of radiatively active gases and particles.

The integrations are identical to the ones which are described in Vanden Broucke et al. (2019). The climate model has a spatial resolution of 2.8 km and an hourly temporal resolution and is available for the recent past (1976-2004) and future (2070-2098) as 30-year datasets. For this dataset, the TDY is extracted for the future period. A bias correction is applied for the following variables: temperature (as described in Ramon et al. 2020), solar radiation and relative humidity as described in Ramon et al. (202X). This work was supported by Research Foundation Flanders (FWO) [1S97418N] and is part of the Ph.D. research 'Towards future-proof buildings in Flanders: Climate and Life Cycle modelling for resilient office buildings'. The climate model data used is the result of the CORDEX.be project funded by the Belgian federal government (Belgian Science Policy Office project BR/143/A2/CORDEX.be) and can be requested via nicole.vanlipzig@kuleuven.be. Computational resources for these integrations were provided by the VSC (Flemish Supercomputer Centre), funded by the Research Foundation – Flanders (FWO) and the Flemish Government - department EWI. The hourly observational data for the bias correction were provided by RMI (Belgian Royal Meteorological Institute).

Data contain risk classification on regional roads (voivodeship roads) in pomorskie voivodeship in 2017-2019, type of accidents: head-on. Measures used to assess the level of risk are (5 classes low, low to medium, medium, medium to high, high): -Social risk: density of accident costs [mln zl/km/3 years] and density of accidents with seriously injured and fatalities [accidents/km/3 years]. -Individual risk: accident costs ratio [mln zl/mln vkt/3years], accident ratio with seriously injured and fatalities [accidents/mln vkt/3years]. Number of [numbers per 3 years]: accidents - 191, injuries - 336, seriously injured 34, fatalities - 24, accident costs 281,9 mln zl. This study is a part of a research project: Risk classification for selected types of road accidents on regional roads (voivodeship roads) in pomorskie voivodeship in 2017-2019.

Abstract This article has two main objectives: a) to briefly present and discuss some technical terms, concepts and approaches that deserve to receive more attention on the part of those Brazilian researchers who devote themselves to the field of urban studies from a perspective concerned with social justice (and with the obstacles that constrain or prevent it); b) to outline a research agenda regarding the conflicts over land use linked to the ideological friction between the right to housing and environmental protection. After an introductory discussion on the concept of environmental justice and its relevance to social struggles - contextualising the analysis with help of the concept of 'urban eco-geopolitics' -, it is offered a critical treatment of the term 'environmental risk.' Finally, as the main 'laboratory' that provides empirical support for the arguments developed in the text, the paper presents what can be understood as an emblematic case study of conservative exploitation of the discourse of 'environmental protection': the threat of forced eviction under which favela dwellers of the 'buffer zone' of the Tijuca National Park (Rio de Janeiro) have suffered.

Research widely accepts that the physical environment and spaces affect the behaviour, health and wellbeing of the people that use them. Circulation and the human experience reflects this relationship in a different setting. Circulation systems serve as a crucial element of spaces and a means for users to experience architecture while the experiences of users sum up their perception as well as physiological and psychological responses. The dataset details findings obtained from a survey of users in four water-based recreational centres in Nigeria. The researchers collected data to evaluate the experiences of these users and how circulation features impact them. It contains findings from a cross-sectional survey of 161 respondents sampled from a census. The survey instruments contain user experience variables developed from studies by Daly, Farahani, Hollingsbee, & Ocampo, (2017) Cho & Mi (2017). The data analysis displayed the factors that influence user experience within the recreational spaces, the users' perception of horizontal and vertical circulation systems and the relationship between spatial circulation and user experience derived through linear regression analysis. The contributors used the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) in coding and analysing the data. Researchers that use this data can interpret it within the limitations of water-based recreational centres. They can repeat similar methodologies in different public spaces to understand the nature of these concepts and their relationships in diverse settings. While it provides insight into the nature of experience in these public spaces, it does not draw a general conclusion of experience in similar facilities due to the differences in architectural design as well as other locational factors. Nonetheless, the data would prove a valuable tool in experience evaluation and in establishing new connections between the environment and users.
