This shows estimates of earth's global average surface air temperature over the ~540 My of the Phanerozoic Eon, since the first major proliferation of complex life forms on our planet. A substantial achievement of the last 30 years of climate science has been the production of a large set of actual measurements of temperature history (from physical proxies), replacing much of the earlier geological induction (i.e. informed guesses). The graph shows selected proxy temperature estimates, which are detailed below.

Because many proxy temperature reconstructions indicate local, not global, temperature -- or ocean, not air, temperature -- substantial approximation may be involved in deriving these global temperature estimates. As a result, the relativities of some of the plotted estimates are approximate, particularly the early ones.

Time is plotted forward to the present, taken as 2015 CE. It joins five separate linearly scaled segments, expanding by about an order of magnitude at each vertical break. The breaks are not evenly distributed; rather they are positioned at geologically relevant times, which might be misleading since the break in the last interglacial makes it seem much longer:

• At the Mesozoic – Cenozoic boundary, ~65 My ago. This is the "K-T" boundary (now called "Cretaceous–Paleogene"), at which the dinosaurs became extinct.
• At the Miocene – Pliocene boundary, ~5.3 My ago.
• One million years ago, near the onset of the current, 100,000 year-dominated, glaciation cycle (previous glaciations were shorter).
• Near the last glacial maximum, 20,000 years ago.

Surface air temperature is plotted as anomalies (differences) from the average over the reference interval 1960–1990 (which is about 14°C / 57°F), in both Celsius (left) and Fahrenheit (right).

The panel 1 data is from stable oxygen isotope measurements from the shells of macroscopic marine organisms, collected by Veizer et al (1999),^[1] as re-interpreted by Royer et al (2004).^[2] The graph effectively reproduces the upper panel of Royer et al's figure 4, but with an expanded range (see below). The orange band shows the effect of extreme assumptions in application of the GEOCARB reconstruction to interpretation, and is not representative of the full uncertainly (which would be much larger).

Because the Royer and Veizer results are indicative of the temperature of the shallow tropical and subtropical seas where the organisms lived,^[2] they are unlikely to be fully representative of global average surface air temperature variation. The anomalies are plotted here expanded by a factor of two, as a very approximate conversion. Multiple confounding factors affect interpretation of samples this old, so panel 1 is best viewed as a qualitative indication of temperature (warmer/colder).^[3]

This data is from the Hansen et al (2013)^[4] interpretation of the global collection of oxygen isotope data from microscopic marine organisms of Zachos et al (2008).^[5]

This is a direct estimate of global average sea surface temperature, a close analogue of surface air temperature. Hansen et al describe it as a "first estimate", meaning an approximate one, but limited independent corroboration (e.g. Zachos et al (2006)^[6] for the Eocene optimum) indicates that it is substantially more quantitative than panel 1.

This data is from the Lisiecki and Raymo (2005)^[7][8] global stack of oxygen isotope data from microscopic marine organisms interpreted using the Hansen et al (2013)^[4] prescription.

At this scale, the Zachos et al stack (which also covers this interval) is virtually indistinguishable from the Lisiecki and Raymo stack. This is a direct estimate of global average sea surface temperature.

Two datasets are plotted:

1. Lisiecki and Raymo, as in panel 3.
2. Temperature estimates from stable hydrogen isotope measurements from the EPICA Dome C ice core from central Antarctica^[9] These temperature anomaly estimates are polar, not global, and are here divided by a standard polar amplification factor (2.0, as for example in Hansen et al (2013)^[4]) to approximately convert them to global estimates.

Five datasets are plotted:

1. EPICA Dome C, as in panel 4.
2. Temperature estimates from oxygen isotope measurements on the north Greenland ice core, NGRIP,^[10] interpreted using the simple procedure of Johnsen et al (1989).^[11] (There are more modern and complex procedures which would yield slightly different interpretations.) Like the EPICA Dome C record, this record is polar, and is shown divided by a polar amplification factor of 2.0. The difference between this and dataset 1. illustrates the polar sea-saw hypothesis.
3. Global temperature estimates over the ~12,000 years of the Holocene from the multi-proxy collection and interpretation of Marcott et al (2013).^[12]
4. Instrumental (not proxy) data since 1850 from the Berkeley Earth project land-ocean dataset (2014),^[13] plotted as decadal means.
5. Projected temperatures for 2050 and 2100 from the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report's WG1 Summary for Policy Makers (2013)^[14] for the RCP8.5 scenario.
