Description: Projected temperature and precipitation changes relative to preindustrial; end-of-century response without (a) and with (b) geoengineering to avoid temperature rise above 1.5C, and for comparison the projected changes from period earlier in the century (c) where the global mean

temperature change is 1.5C without geoengineering. Each panel also lists the global-mean change in temperature or the %change in precipitation. Median results are shown over 12 climate models participating in GeoMIP, estimated using a dynamic climate emulator (see https://dx.doi.org/10.1098/rsta.2016.0454).
