title: Chapter 3 of the Working Group I Contribution to the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report - data for Figure 3.29 (v20220616)

description: Data for Figure 3.29 from Chapter 3 of the Working Group I (WGI) Contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). Figure 3.29 shows simulated and observed global mean sea level change due to thermal expansion for CMIP6 models and observations relative to the baseline period 1850-1900. --------------------------------------------------- How to cite this dataset --------------------------------------------------- When citing this dataset, please include both the data citation below (under 'Citable as') and the following citation for the report component from which the figure originates: Eyring, V., N.P.
