Description:
This profile provides an overview of projected climate parameters and related impacts on different sec- tors in Pakistan until 2080 under different climate change scenarios (called Representative Concentration Pathways, RCPs). RCP2.6 represents the low-emissions scenario, which aims to keep global warming likely be- low 2 °C compared to pre-industrial temperatures, and RCP6.0 represents a medium / high emissions scenario. RCP6.0 was selected to follow a middle-of-the-road pathway, while RCP2.6 was added as the best-case sce- nario. We avoid to add the worst-case scenario RCP8.5, as the energy behaviour leading to such emissions has been deemed not realistic. Model projections do not account for effects of future socioeconomic impacts.
