About: Climate spiral

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A climate spiral (sometimes referred to as a temperature spiral) is an animated data visualization graphic designed as a "simple and effective demonstration of the progression of global warming", especially for general audiences. The original climate spiral was published on 9 May 2016 by British climate scientist Ed Hawkins to portray global average temperature anomaly (change) since 1850. The visualization graphic has since been expanded to represent other time-varying quantities such as atmospheric CO2 concentration, carbon budget, and arctic sea ice volume.

  • Climate spiral of Earth's atmospheric CO2 concentration, starting in 1958. As expected, the curve CO2 expands more smoothly than curves for temperature change. (en)
  • In May 2016, the USGS produced this graphic of simulated global average temperature changes to 2100, predicted under an RCP 8.5 scenario. (en)
  • Final frame of a climate spiral (en)
  • An early Ed Hawkins climate spiral shows global average temperature change from 1850 through 2016. The growing size of the spiral indicates how temperature has increased over time. (en)
  • Climate spiral of Earth's arctic sea ice volume. The curve, "lopsided" due to winter-summer variations, spirals inward to reflect reduction in sea ice volume. (en)
