abstract={We introduce Version 2 of our widely used 1-km K{\"o}ppen-Geiger climate classification maps for historical and future climate conditions. The historical maps (encompassing 1901--1930, 1931--1960, 1961--1990, and 1991--2020) are based on high-resolution, observation-based climatologies, while the future maps (encompassing 2041--2070 and 2071--2099) are based on downscaled and bias-corrected climate projections for seven shared socio-economic pathways (SSPs). We evaluated 67 climate models from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6 (CMIP6) and kept a subset of 42 with the most plausible CO2-induced warming rates. We estimate that from 1901--1930 to 1991--2020, approximately 5{\%} of the global land surface (excluding Antarctica) transitioned to a different major K{\"o}ppen-Geiger class. Furthermore, we project that from 1991--2020 to 2071--2099, 5{\%} of the land surface will transition to a different major class under the low-emissions SSP1-2.6 scenario, 8{\%} under the middle-of-the-road SSP2-4.5 scenario, and 13{\%} under the high-emissions SSP5-8.5 scenario. The K{\"o}ppen-Geiger maps, along with associated confidence estimates, underlying monthly air temperature and precipitation data, and sensitivity metrics for the CMIP6 models, can be accessed at www.gloh2o.org/koppen.},
