Annual average temperature (top) and m onthly average temperature (bottom) projections for Ashland as simulated by 18 downscaled global climate models under a low (RCP4.5) and high (RCP8.5) greenhouse gas emissions scenario. Solid line and sha ding depicts the 18 -model mean and range, respectively. The multi -model mean differences for the 2050s (2040 -2069 average) and 2080s (2070 -2099 average) compared to the historical baseline (1950 -2005) are displayed on the top plot .
