CSIRO_MK3_6_0: CSIRO-MK3-6-0 temperature and forcing dataset.

Description Usage Format References Examples

Description

This is the CSIRO-MK3-6-0 temperature dataset. Also includes radiative forcing data obtained by combining the CSIRO-MK3-6-0 forcing data and Hansen et al. (2010) such that the 18-yr moving averages are equal. The forcing slope coefficient when assuming a 1% annual increase of CO2, which is used to estimate the TCR, is 2.6.

Format

The data is a list that contains these objects:

Year

Time index denoting the year of the observations.

Temperature

Annual global mean surface temperature.

Forcing

Annual adjusted radiative forcing.
