Fig. 3: Regional and age-group-specific trends in the cumulative and intensity of acute exposure of population groups: 2020–2050.

Top row: global trends; lower rows: regional trends. Panel (A): GCM uncertainty range for the count of individuals exposed to a given CDD exposure level, age stratification, faceted by region, difference between SSP2(45) and current population. Panel (B): GCM uncertainty range for the count of individuals exposed to a given number of annual days with TMAX95 > 37.5 °C, age stratification, faceted by region, difference between SSP2(45) and current population. Panel (C): GCM uncertainty range for the count of individuals exposed to a given 95th percentile maximum temperature exposure level, age stratification, faceted by region, difference between SSP2(45) and current population. Figures SI-19–SI-21 in the SI Appendix present similar figures for SSP1(26), 3(70). and 5(85).
