title: Chapter 2 of the Working Group I Contribution to the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report - input data for Figure 2.29 (v20220624)

description: Input data for Figure 2.29 from Chapter 2 of the Working Group I (WGI) Contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). Figure 2.29 shows the surface ocean pH evolution over time from the last 65 million years onwards up to modern times. --------------------------------------------------- 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: Gulev, S.K., P.W.
