K values are logarithmic, similar to Richter-style magnitudes, but have a different scaling and zero point. K values in the range of 12 to 15 correspond approximately to M 4.5 to 6. [59] M(K), M (K), or possibly M K indicates a magnitude M calculated from an energy class K. [60]

RCP 2.6 is a "very stringent" pathway. [4] According to the IPCC, RCP 2.6 requires that carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions start declining by 2020 and go to zero by 2100.It also requires that methane emissions (CH 4) go to approximately half the CH 4 levels of 2020, and that sulphur dioxide (SO2) emissions decline to approximately 10% of those of 1980–1990.
4, 5 4 or 2 4 in a 4 4 composition, or a bar of 4 4 in a 3 4 composition, or a bar of 5 8 in a 6 8 composition. If a song is entirely in 4 4 a change to 3 4 will make the song feel like it has skipped a beat, the opposite is true for 5 4 where it feels like the song adds a beat. If a song changes to 2
