title: Chapter 3 of the Working Group I Contribution to the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report - data for FAQ 3.2, Figure 1 (v20220615)

description: Data for FAQ 3.2, Figure 1 from Chapter 3 of the Working Group I (WGI) Contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). FAQ 3.2, Figure 1 shows annual, decadal and multi-decadal variations in average global surface temperature. --------------------------------------------------- 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.

So the datasets are stored just in the main figure folder. --------------------------------------------------- List of data provided --------------------------------------------------- Dataset contains modelled GSAT anomalies from MPI-ESM grand ensemble (1950-2019): - On annual scale - On decadal scale - On multi-decadal scale --------------------------------------------------- Data provided in relation to figure --------------------------------------------------- - annual_gsat_anomalies_mpi_esm_grand_ens.csv has data for the left panel, GSAT anomalies from 1950 to 2019 from MPI-ESM grand ensemble (black, light green, light marsh green, light dark green lines) - decadal_gsat_anomalies_mpi_esm_grand_ens.csv has data for the middle panel, GSAT anomalies from 1950 to 2019 from MPI-ESM grand ensemble (black, light green, light marsh green, light dark green lines) - multi_decadal_gsat_anomalies_mpi_esm_grand_ens.csv has data for the right panel, GSAT anomalies from 1950 to 2019 from MPI-ESM grand ensemble (black, light green, light marsh green, light dark green lines) GSAT stands for Global Surface Air Temperature. MPI-ESM is a comprehensive Earth-System Model, consisting of component models for the ocean, the atmosphere and the land surface. --------------------------------------------------- Sources of additional information --------------------------------------------------- The following weblinks are provided in the Related Documents section of this catalogue record: - Link to the report component containing the figure (Chapter 3) - Link to the Supplementary Material for Chapter 3, which contains details on the input data used in Table 3.SM.1 - Link to the figure on the IPCC AR6 website - Link to the GitHub repo with code for the figure
