List of data provided
---------------------------------------------------
Global surface temperature, relative to 1850 - 1900 for:
Panel a:
- 1000 to 1900 CE - from PAGES 2k Consortium (modified from the version 2019: 10.1038/s41561-019-0400-0)
- 1850 to 2020 from AR6 assessed mean (same as Figure 2.11c).
Panel c:
- Annual and decadal means from instrumental data for 1850–2020, along with the uncertainty range from HadCRUT5.
---------------------------------------------------
Data provided in relation to figure
---------------------------------------------------
Panel a:
- Data file: Figure_2_11a-PAGES_2k_Consortium.csv (yearly data, 1000 to 1900); relates to the center part of the figure showing global surface temperature relative to 1850 -1900. (bold solid green line, column 2, median 10-yr smooth adjusted (+0.37°C), thin solid green lines: 5th (column 3) and 95th (column 4) percentiles of the ensemble members).
- Data file: Figure2_11_panel_a.csv (yearly data, 1850 to 2020); relates to the right part of the figure showing global temperature anomaly AR6 assessed mean. (bold solid violet line, column 2)
Panel c:
- Data file: Figure_2_11c-land_and_ocean_time_series.csv (yearly data, 1850 to 2020); relates to the upper part of the figure showing global surface temperature relative to 1850 -1900. (Land, column 2, red line; Ocean, column 3, blue line).

| Title | Caption for Figure 2.11 from Chapter 2 of the Working Group I (WGI) Contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) |
| Abstract | Earth’s surface temperature history with key findings annotated within each panel. (a) GMST over the Holocene divided into three time scales: (i) 12 kyr–1 kyr in 100-year time steps; (ii) 1000–1900 CE, 10-year smooth; and (iii) 1900–2020 CE (from panel (c)). Median of the multi-method reconstruction (bold lines), with 5th and 95th percentiles of the ensemble members (thin lines). Vertical bars are the assessed medium confidence ranges of GMST for the Last Interglacial and mid-Holocene (Section 2.3.1.1). The last decade value and very likely range arises from Section 2.3.1.1.3. (b) Spatially resolved trends (C per decade) for HadCRUTv5 over (upper map) 1900–1980, and (lower map) 1981–2020.Significance is assessed following AR(1) adjustment after Santer et al. (2008), ‘x’ marks denote non-significant trends. (c) Temperature from instrumental data for 1850–2020, including (upper panel) multi-product mean annual timeseries assessed in Section 2.3.1.1.3 for temperature over the oceans (blue line) and temperature over the land (red line) and indicating the warming to the most recent 10 years; and annually (middle panel) and decadally (bottom panel) resolved averages for the GMST datasets assessed in Section 2.3.1.1.3. The grey shading in each panel shows the uncertainty associated with the HadCRUT5 estimate (Morice et al., 2021). All temperatures relative to the 1850–1900 reference period. Further details on data sources and processing are available in the chapter data table (Table 2.SM.1). |
