Notes on reproducing the figure from the provided data.
---------------------------------------------------
This data is an input observational data for the Figure 3.28. It is used for scatter plots and contour maps.
In addition, shapefiles are required to calculate the regional boundaries: Pacific.shp, Atlantic.shp. These regions should be standarised throught AR6.

The following changes to filenames were made to archive the data (due to filenaming restrictions). To use the data with any associated figure code, the filenames should be reverted.

Abstract

Long-term trends in halosteric and thermosteric sea level in CMIP6 models and observations. Units are mm year-1. In the right column, three observed maps of 0 to 2000 m halosteric sea level trends (right column) top from (Durack and Wijffels, 2010, 1950–2019 updated – D&W), middle from (Good et al., 2013, 1950-2019 updated- EN4), and lower from (Ishii et al., 2017, 1955-2019 updated – Ishii), and bottom, the CMIP6 historical multi-model mean (1950-2014). Red and orange colours show a halosteric contraction (enhanced salinity) and blue and green a halosteric expansion (reduced salinity). In the left column, basin-integrated halosteric (top) and thermosteric (bottom) trends for the Atlantic and Pacific, the two largest ocean basins, where Pacific anomalies are presented on the x-axis and Atlantic on the y-axis. Observational estimates are presented in black, CMIP6 historical (all forcings) simulations are shown in orange squares, with the multi-model mean shown as a dark orange diamond with a black bounding box. CMIP6 hist-nat (historical natural forcings only) simulations are shown in green squares with the multi-model mean as a dark green diamond with a black bounding box. Further details on data sources and processing are available in the chapter data table (Table 3.SM.1).
