Fig. 1: Surface temperature differences between the equator and other latitudes as a function of global-mean surface temperature (GMST).
From: Quasi-invariance of tropical meridional surface temperature gradient in a wide range of climates
Circles: between the equator (5°S-5°N average) and 30°S/N (TSeq-30); triangles: between the equator and 60°S/N (TSeq-60); diamonds: between the equator and 90°S/N (TSeq-90). The gray dashed line, with a slope of −0.08 and an intercept of 6.95, is the linear regression between TSeq-30 and global-mean surface temperature (GMST). Different colors represent different datasets. More details about the datasets are shown in the “Methods”.
