One summer during the early 1980s I worked as a wilderness ranger in the Pecos Wilderness of New Mexico. I spent half the summer camped at 12,000 feet – at Truchas Lake in the red circle below.
North Truchas Peak on June 10, 2009
The lake was partially frozen over until late July and was the only place I had to bathe. Needless to say, I took pretty short baths.
After a few more years of global warming, the lake will look like the picture below. Temperatures are expected to rise somewhere between zero and one hundred degrees over the next 40 years.
Saguaro cactus and coconut palms in the same area. I think the palms need a bit more humidity.
Your temperature range is to narrow because in some locations it is possible that global warming will cause cooling so at that elevation it is possible that Global Warming wight drive the temperatures down 40 to 60 F sort of like what is happening on Antarctica!!!!!
Your range should be -60 to + 100 for possible future temperatures caused by Global Warming and you will fit right in the Brotherhood of Climatologists!
I think that climate
changedisruption could kill 10 billion people by 2100!
