Fig. 2: Multi-GCM ensemble agreement on the sign of change in predicted values of soil ECe in the long-term future (2071–2100), relative to the reference period (1961–1990) under different greenhouse gas concentration trajectories.
From: Global predictions of primary soil salinization under changing climate in the 21st century
a, b Multi-GCM ensemble agreement of the models adopted from Coupled Model Inter-comparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) forced by RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 scenarios (Representative Concentration Pathways, which result in a respective radiative forcing of 4.5 and 8.5 W m−2 in year 2100, relative to pre-industrial conditions), respectively. c, d respective multi-GCM ensemble agreement of the models adopted from CMIP6 project under SSP 2-4.5 and SSP 5-8.5 pathways (projections forced by RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 global forcing pathways for the Shared Socio-economic Pathways 2 and 5, respectively). 100% shows the full agreement of the models on the sign of change, while zero indicates inconsistency among the models’ predictions.
