Mean potential evaporation for the 30-year period 2071-2100, No climate protection scenario (RCP8.5)

The map shows the mean annual potential evaporation (in mm) for the 30-year period 2071-2100 under the “No Climate Protection” scenario (RCP8.5). The basis for the presented potential evaporation is the daily potential evaporation according to the standard procedure of the FAO for the determination of grass reference evaporation. The climate models are powered by the “No Climate Protection” scenario (RCP8.5). This is a scenario of the IPCC, which describes a continuous increase in global greenhouse gas emissions, which by the end of the 21st century generates an additional radiative forcing of 8.5 watts per m² compared to pre-industrial levels. The results of all climate models are equally likely. Therefore, in addition to the mean that shows a tendency, the upper (maximum) and lower (minimum) edges of the result bandwidth can be retrieved via the MapTip.
