The AWARE2.0 characterization factors (CFs) are available at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15133241. This repository provides characterization factors in varying spatiotemporal resolutions and file types:

  • MS Excel files:
    • Basin level CFs (the native resolution of AWARE2.0)
    • Country and region level CFs
    • Subnational CFs
  • GIS files for the identification of basins on a map
