Table 2 Climate change scenarios.
From: Reliability of Reinforced Concrete Structures Subjected to Corrosion-Fatigue and Climate Change
Scenario | ΔT (°C) | Δh | ΔR |
|---|---|---|---|
Without climate change is neglected | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Expected Use of alternative and fossil sources of energy, birthrates follow the current patterns and there is no extensive employ of clean technologies (equivalent to scenarios RCP2.6–RCP4.5 depending on the location) | 2.5 | 0.05 | − 0.1 |
Pessimistic Vast utilization of fossil sources of energy, appreciable growth of population and there are no policies to develop and extend the use of clean technologies (equivalent to scenarios RCP6–RCP8.5 depending on the location) | 6.5 | 0.1 | 0.2 |
