When can we expect extremely high surface temperatures?
... Figure 1 also shows that future temperature extremes are governed by the same processes as today’s extremes. If new processes were to come in, they would lead to a second population within the PDF of extremes. This would show up as deviations from the theoretical fit at the highest simulated tempera ...
