European Definitions
RESIN project
The RESIN project [1] gives the following definition:
A climate projection is the simulated response of the climate system to a scenario of future emission or concentration of greenhouse gases and aerosols, generally derived using climate models.[2]
Other International Definitions

Denmark
Klimafremskrivninger: Femskrivninger af, hvordan klimaet på Jorden ændrer sig som følge af øget koncentration af drivhusgasser i atmosfæren. [3]
Germany
Climate projections attempt to forecast how the climate will change in response to emissions of varying quantities and types of greenhouse gas. [4]
Rwanda
Climate projection A projection of the response of the climate system to emissions or concentration scenarios of greenhouse gases and aerosols, or radiative forcing scenarios, often based upon simulations by climate models. [5]
