  1. Percent increase in optimal decarbonization rates in RICE + AIR versus the corresponding reference case given different modeling assumptions. The difference in peak temperature is the difference in the highest global average temperature
  2. aThe difference in peak temperature between the reference case and the RICE + AIR case within each test: positive values indicate a lower peak temperature in the RICE + AIR case. Values are rounded
