Figure number: 3.42 From the IPCC Working Group I Contribution to the Sixth Assessment Report: Chapter 3
Relative space-time root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) calculated from the climatological seasonal cycle of the CMIP simulations (1980-1999) compared to observational datasets. (a) CMIP3, CMIP5, and CMIP6 for 16 atmospheric variables (b) CMIP5 and CMIP6 for 10 land variables and four ocean/sea-ice variables. A relative performance measure is displayed, with blue shading indicating better and red shading indicating worse performance than the median of all model results. A diagonal split of a grid square shows the relative error with respect to the reference data set (lower right triangle) and an additional data set (upper left triangle). Reference/additional datasets are from top to bottom in (a): ERA5/NCEP, GPCP-SG/GHCN, CERES-EBAF/-, CERES-EBAF/-, CERES-EBAF/-, CERES-EBAF/-, JRA-55/ERA5, ESACCI-SST/HadISST, ERA5/NCEP, ERA5/NCEP, ERA5/NCEP, ERA5/NCEP, ERA5/NCEP, ERA5/NCEP, AIRS/ERA5, ERA5/NCEP and in (b): CERES-EBAF/-, CERES-EBAF/-, CERES-EBAF/-, CERES-EBAF/-, LandFlux-EVAL/-, Landschuetzer2016/ JMA-TRANSCOM; MTE/FLUXCOM, LAI3g/-, JMA-TRANSCOM, ESACCI-SOILMOISTURE/-, HadISST/ATSR, HadISST/-, HadISST/-, ERA-Interim/-. White boxes are used when data are not available for a given model and variable.
