File talk:20191021 Temperature from 20,000 to 10,000 years ago - recovery from ice age.png
Latest comment: 16 days ago by RCraig09
@RCraig09: You are the creator of this graphic, and have to ask about how you did it. This is because it seems to imply that the Younger Dryas was 4-5C colder than the preindustrial, and the period ~20,000 years ago was 10C cooler. This is directly contradicted by Figure 2 of this peer-reviewed paper. Could you please double-check that the data you have taken actually refers to global temperature change, rather than the one local to that ice core?

- @InformationToKnowledge: This chart was one of my earliest, and the subtitle /legend indicates that the raw data is specific ice core data. I plan to change the chart title. —RCraig09 (talk) 16:32, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- @RCraig09 OK, could you please do it sooner rather than later? The article where I found it is actually really visible, so avoiding significant inconsistencies there is fairly important. InformationToKnowledge (talk) 14:27, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

- I see it now, but that change only partially addresses my concerns. The title is no longer explicitly wrong, but it is still very open to being misread. You don't really need to say "ice core" both in the title and in the subheading: what you do need to do is to specify where "EPICA Dome C" actually is. I would suggest something like "Antarctica temperatures at the end of last Ice Age" for the heading. InformationToKnowledge (talk) 19:46, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- @InformationToKnowledge:
Done as suggested. I'm surprised at how different the Antarctica range is, compared to proxy global temps in the Nature source. —RCraig09 (talk) 03:03, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
