Description:

Risks of species losses as indicated by the percentage of assessed species exposed to potentially dangerous temperature conditions, as defined by conditions beyond the estimated historical (1850-2005) maximum mean annual temperature experienced by each species, at GWLs of 1.5oC, 2oC,3oC and 4oC. Underpinning projections of temperature are from 21 Earth system models and do not consider extreme events impacting ecosystems such as the Arctic. The original datasets from Trisos et al. (2020) (https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-020-2189-9) is given as Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs). This dataset was processed by the WGII authors and translated into Global Warming Levels (GWLs).
