Explore IPCC GCM projections for future temperatures in January and July 2080-2099 based on NASA’s GISS ER model, including Best, Moderate, and Worst case scenarios presented as anomalies. Understand SRES scenarios A2, A1B, B1 for climate insights.

Global Circulation Model Predictions of Future Temperatures • Maps compiled from the IPCC DDC web tool that allows access to GCM modeling results • NASA’s GISS ER model used for all simulations • Temperature anomalies presented as difference between late 21st century temperatures (2080-2099 average) and the 1961-1990 30-year average baseline. • IPCC SRES Scenarios presented as: • Worst case (A2) • Moderate case (A1B) • Best case (B1) • Note – other scenarios can be found that give worse “worst” case and better “best” case predictions, but the ones chosen here are commonly used
