The multi-model mean difference in the number of frost days under the higher emissions scenario (A2) for 2070-2099 relative to 1971-2000 was plotted for the contiguous United States.

1. For each model at each grid point, the number of frost days under the higher emissions scenario (A2) was calculated for two periods: 1971-2000 and 2070-2099. 2. At each grid point, the number of frost days was computed for the following models: - cgcm3_t47 - cgcm3_t63 - cnrm - echam5 - echo - gfdl_2.1 - hadcm3 - pcm 3. At each grid point, the difference in the number of frost days was calculated for 2070-2099 minus 1971-2000. 4. Data were plotted for all grid points.

The duration of this activity was 56 hours.
