Each country on its own
Good to know
- Nights in a year when the temperature stays above 20 °C, averaged over the country.
- Source: World Bank Climate Change Knowledge Portal, CMIP6 multi-model median.
- The dashed line is the CMIP6 model median (SSP2-4.5, middle of the road), a scenario rather than a forecast; the band is its models’ 10th–90th percentile.
- Climate model values are the median of the CMIP6 models, run on past emissions to 2014 and on SSP2-4.5, a middle-of-the-road path, after: they are not measurements.
