Baoshan's climate in the 2050s

2041-2060 compared with 1991-2020, moderate emissions

By the 2050s, Baoshan's climate will still be more like its own today than any other large city's. The nearest other is Córdoba (Argentina).

Under high emissions, no large city has such a climate today; the nearest is Córdoba (Argentina).

Its own climate today is 4.9 σ away. How close the match is: 5.5 σ to the climate of Córdoba today, where under 2 is close and over 4 is no match (Mahony et al. 2017). 3 of 3 climate model runs name the same city. Seasonal temperature and rain are compared, not extremes, city heat or the sea.

Hazards at Baoshan

Read at the city's centre and compared with the Atlas's 630 large cities. Moderate emissions is the IPCC's scenario SSP2-4.5.

Hot days in 2025, over 35 °C 0 days
Tropical nights in 2025, over 20 °C 0 days
Hottest day of 2025 29.4°C Among large cities: above 5% In China: 134 of 135
Warming by 2050, moderate emissions +1.6°C Among large cities: above 26% In China: 135 of 135
Days with 20 mm of rain or more in 2025 22 days Among large cities: above 88% In China: 13 of 135
River flood depth, 100-year event Dry at the city centre point
Coastal flood depth, 100-year event Dry at the city centre point
Water stress Low (<10%) Among large cities: above 0% In China: 103 of 135
Drought risk Medium-High Among large cities: above 13% In China: 74 of 135
Earthquake shaking, once in 475 years 3.09 m/s² Among large cities: above 90% In China: 5 of 135
Land burned in an average year 0%
Cyclone wind, once in 100 years 0 m/s

Flood depth is read in a single 1 km cell at the city's centre, in today's climate. Other parts of the city can still flood. The country page names the deepest point near a coastal city in 2080, so its figure can be higher. See how deep a river flood reaches around Baoshan on the live map
