title: Chapter 11 of the Working Group I Contribution to the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report - data for FAQ 11.1, figure 1 (v20220629)

description: Data for FAQ 11.1 , figure 1 from Chapter 11 of the Working Group I (WGI) Contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). FAQ 11.1, figure 1 shows global maps of future changes in surface temperature and precipitation for long-term average and extreme conditions. --------------------------------------------------- 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: Seneviratne, S.I., X.
