Fig.1: Multi-model simulated time series at Thessaloniki (Greece) from 1950 to 2100 for change in mean annual near surface temperature relative to the historical period 1950–2004 based on high resolution regional climate data (0.11°) acquired from the Coordinated Regional Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX) research program (www.cordex.org). Time series of projections are shown for scenarios RCP2.6 (yellow), RCP4.5 (red) and RCP8.5 (purple) as well as for the historical period (black). The respective bold lines indicate ensemble yearly means and best fit using the local polynomial regression fitting functions (loess) from the yearly ensemble mean data.
