Highest projected 2050 figure for this metric.
Best fit indicial very marginally over quadratic , but for
continuity, going with quadratic again .
Further such month with marginally better indicial fit,
if going with indicial then increased projection to 2050 of 2608.057
ppb, with no added sine components,
so staying with conservative quadratic as well as continuity of results
y= 1776.083366 +(a)*x + b*x*x + c*sin(d*x+e) + f*sin(g*x+ h)
y in ppb and x = year -2000,
6 figure values retained for anyone else checking/confirming all this
