Chapter 3 of the Working Group I Contribution to the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report - data for Figure 3.11 (v20220620)
Abstract
Data for Figure 3.11 from Chapter 3 of the Working Group I (WGI) Contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6).
Figure 3.11 shows a comparison between simulated annual precipitation changes and pollen-based reconstructions at the mid-Holocene (6,000 years ago).
