Description: "(A) Historical and future temperature projections through 2050 calculated using the RXM energy balance model based on emissions scenarios from the SSP database (49) for reference scenario (SSP3-7.0), decarbonization-driven mitigation scenario (this study), and an “decarb+targeted” scenario including aggressive decarbonization and targeted SLCP mitigation (adapted from SSP1-1.9). Historical curve (past simulated warming) is from figure SPM8.a (47, 64). (B) Rate of warming (degrees Celsius per decade) in the reference SSP3, decarbonization only, and “decarb+targeted” mitigation cases."
