Abstract

Data for Figure 4.22 from Chapter 4 of the Working Group I (WGI) Contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6).

Figure 4.22 shows the projected long-term change of annual and zonal mean atmospheric temperature.

List of data provided
---------------------------------------------------
CMIP6 multi-model mean projected change in air temperature (2081–2100) from SSP1‑2.6 and SSP3‑7.0 relative to 1995–2014.

---------------------------------------------------
Data provided in relation to figure
---------------------------------------------------
Data file fig4_22a_ta.nc (panel a) includes the multi-model mean zonal mean temperature change as a function of latitude and pressure level for SSP1-2.6
Data file fig4_22b_ta.nc (panel a) includes the multi-model mean zonal mean temperature change as a function of latitude and pressure level for SSP3-7.0

CMIP6 is the sixth phase of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project.
SSP1-2.6 is based on Shared Socioeconomic Pathway SSP1 with low climate change mitigation and adaptation challenges and RCP2.6, a future pathway with a radiative forcing of 2.6 W/m2 in the year 2100.
SSP3-7.0 is based on Shared Socioeconomic Pathway SSP3 which is characterized by high challenges to both mitigation and adaptation and RCP7.0, a future pathway with a radiative forcing of 7.0 W/m2 in the year 2100.

Abstract

Long-term change of annual and zonal mean atmospheric temperature. Displayed are multi-model mean change in annual and zonal mean atmospheric temperature (°C) in 2081–2100 relative to 1995–2014 for (left) SSP1-2.6 and (right) SSP5-8.5. The number of models used is indicated in the top right of the maps. Diagonal lines indicate regions where less than 80% of the models agree on the sign of the change and no overlay where 80% or more of the models agree on the sign of the change. Further details on data sources and processing are available in the chapter data table (Table 4.SM.1).
