Fig. 2: The simulated warming and cooling mode in the transient Holocene simulation.
From: Global temperature modes shed light on the Holocene temperature conundrum

First two spatial empirical orthogonal function (EOF) modes (a,c) and corresponding normalized smoothed principal components (PCs) (b,d) based on the simulated annual 2 m temperature using the MPI-ESM data. The red and blue curves in the right panels show the low-pass filtered PCs. The explained variances of the annual (not low-pass filtered) temperature modes are: 18% and 9%. Panels (a) and (b) show the spatial pattern and temporal evolution of the warming mode and panels (c) and (d) correspond to the cooling mode.
