Extended Data Fig. 6

a, Eruption frequencies of volcanoes binned at 2-kyr intervals. For glaciated volcanoes, the total frequency, as well as the frequency of regional glaciated volcanoes from the Northeast Pacific margin and the rest of the world, are shown. b, The ratios of the eruption frequency of the glaciated volcanoes (global total, from the Northeast Pacific margin or elsewhere) to that of the global unglaciated volcanoes, normalized to the mean ratios during the LGM, used as proxies for glacially induced volcanism. The ribbons indicate interquartile ranges. The eruption frequency ratio increases between 12 and 6 ka in Huybers and Langmuir5, much later than our new compilation (17–11 ka). However, this is because the eruptions of unglaciated volcanoes were under-sampled in Huybers and Langmuir5 during the deglaciation because their database was smaller (a). With greater data coverage, this issue of under-sampling seems resolved in our new compilation
