Box plots of some of the metrics shown in a for selected designs across the 29 climate change projections. All change values are calculated from a baseline in which the GERD is operated on the basis of the Washington draft proposal. The box plots in b i correspond to the lines with similar colours in a. The ends of the boxes in b i represent the upper and lower quartiles, the solid vertical lines inside the boxes mark the medians, the dashed vertical lines mark the means, the circles show the data points and the whiskers extend to the maximum and minimum values, excluding the outliers. The firm power values are calculated on the basis of a 90% reliability, and the GDP values are discounted at a 3% rate.
