title: Technical Summary of the Working Group I Contribution to the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report - Input data for Figure TS.13 v20221111

description: Input data for Figure TS.13 from the Technical Summary of the Working Group I (WGI) Contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). Figure TS.13 shows estimates of the net cumulative energy change for the period 1971–2018 associated with observations of changes in the Global Energy Inventory, Integrated Radiative Forcing and Integrated Radiative Response. --------------------------------------------------- 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: Arias, P.A., N.

Black dotted lines indicate the central estimate with likely and very likely ranges as indicated in the legend. The grey dotted lines indicate the energy change associated with an estimated pre-industrial Earth energy imbalance of 0.2 W m–2 (a), and an illustration of an assumed pattern effect of –0.5 W m–2 °C–1 (c). Background grey lines indicate equivalent heating rates in W m–2 per unit area of Earth’s surface. Panels (d) and (e) show the breakdown of components, as indicated in the legend, for the global energy inventory and integrated radiative forcing, respectively. Panel (f) shows the global energy budget assessed for the period 1971–2018, that is, the consistency between the change in the global energy inventory relative to pre-industrial and the implied energy change from integrated radiative forcing plus integrated radiative response under a number of different assumptions, as indicated in the legend, including assumptions of correlated and uncorrelated uncertainties in forcing plus response. Shading represents the very likely range for observed energy change relative to pre-industrial levels and likely range for all other quantities. Forcing and response time series are expressed relative to a baseline period of 1850–1900. Further details on data sources and processing are available in the chapter data table (Table 7.SM.14). --------------------------------------------------- Data provided in relation to figure --------------------------------------------------- Data provided in relation to Figure TS.13: - Data file: AR6_ERF_1750-2019.csv - Data file: AR6_energy_GMSL_timeseries_FGD_1971to2018_corrigendum.csv - Data file: Box7.2_ERF_ZJ_percentiles_FGD_1971to2018.csv - Data file: Box7.2_Response_ZJ_percentiles_FGD_1971to2018.csv - Data file: Box7.2_ERFResp_uncorrelated_ZJ_percentiles_FGD_1971to2018.csv - Data file: Box7.2_ERFResp_correlated_ZJ_percentiles_FGD_1971to2018.csv Data files are converted to csv from pickle format for archival.
