The word representative signifies that each RCP [representative concentration pathway] provides only one of many possible scenarios that would lead to the specific radiative forcing characteristics. The term pathway emphasises that not only the long-term concentration levels are of interest, but also the trajectory taken over time to reach that outcome … 4, record 1, English, - representative%20concentration%20pathway
