Title: Projected change in premature deaths across study cities from the GFDL-CM3 and MIROC5 climate models. Legend: This figure presents the projected change in total premature temperature-attributable deaths and the equivalent deaths per million study city residents (left and right sides of the y axis respectively) for future reporting years (x axis) relative to the 1990 baseline. The results for the GFDL-CM3 model are presented in the left panel and the MIROC5 model in the right panel. Changes in premature deaths for the hotter months of April – September (heat) are presented in purple, and changes for the colder months of October – March (cold) are presented in green. The combined effect is shown with the black squares
