Key Points

Establish a generalizable framework, designated FLEX, to systematically extend CMIP7 ScenarioMIP marker scenarios beyond the year 2100.
Formulated the FLEX methodological framework to define consistent multi-century extensions for greenhouse gas concentrations and socioeconomic emissions pathways.
Applied the framework concretely to designated ScenarioMIP marker scenarios established for the seventh phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP7).
Establishes a harmonized and reproducible protocol for extending standard climate trajectories past 2100.
Supplies concrete, extended driver data for Earth system models to evaluate multi-century climate stabilization, overshoot, and legacy impacts.
