RCP8.5 scenario (the concentration of carbon is at an average of 8.5 watts per square meter across the planet) shows a more abrupt increase in temperature in the region and up to 10°C–12°C from 2017 levels, especially in northern Pakistan. RCP4.5 scenario (the concentration of carbon is at an average of 4.5 watts per square meter across the planet) indicates a similar increasing trend but with less intensity, 5°C–6°C.
