Detecting Warming Hiatus Periods in CMIP5 Climate Model Projections

Figure 3

GST rates (°C/decade) of 15-year periods ending between January 1980 and May 2015 for GISTEMP and 15-year periods ending between December 2020 and December 2099 for RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 data, relative to 1951–1980 climatology using the Historical experiment. The lines corresponding to the RCP data are the mean rates of all 38 models for that experiment.
