Using linear interpolation and assuming population is the difference between
the two observations:

Lo 1351.1 1350.4*
Hi 1354.3 1353.5
Pop 309.0 1961.7

Hi =percentile(Elevs,percentrank(Temps,10,30)) etc.

(*This observation needs to be extrapolated.)

Basically i got 4 tables.
table 1: temperature for different elevation for part 1 and 2.
table 2: concentration for different elevation for part 1 and 2.
table 4: Cumulative population for different elevation for part 1 and
2.

Table 3 are what I want to calculate. I want to get the elevation
range(low limit and high limit) which satisfy two criteria:
temperature <10 and concentration 5 from table 1 and 2. And then
calculate the population in these range using table 4.

Anyone can help?

Thanks a lot.
