The IPCC Sixth report did not estimate the likelihoods of the scenarios [17]: 12 but a 2020 commentary described SSP5–8.5 as highly unlikely, SSP3–7.0 as unlikely, and SSP2–4.5 as likely. [18] However, a report citing the above commentary shows that RCP8.5 is the best match to the cumulative emissions from 2005 to 2020.
The IPCC Third Assessment Report (TAR), Climate Change 2001, is an assessment of available scientific and socio-economic information on climate change by the IPCC.
