This is a high-emissions pathway — the upper end of plausible futures, not a central estimate. Changes are measured by each model against its own past output and then applied to the observed record, which cancels each model’s bias but not the genuine uncertainty about how much warming occurs. Where the models disagree widely, the range above is the honest answer.
