The Medieval Warming Period mapping project shows locations where studies of proxy data from the MWP have been analyzed. As everyone can see, there is a LOT of evidence the MWP was comparable to the present and the MWP was a worldwide phenomena.

A cursory inspection of Figure 1 indicates that there are a large number of warm study locations dispersed throughout the world. However, to determine the global numbers for the Warm-Cold-Neutral-Dry-Wet studies, I downloaded the mapped data for the 934 studies that were available on 30 December 2016 and these are summarised in Figure 2.

The following observations are evident from Figure 2;

a. The number of Warm studies (497) greatly exceed the other studies, namely, 53% of the studies when temperature and hydroclimate date is used and 88% when temperature only data is used.

b. The number of Cold studies (18) is very small, at 2-3% of the overall studies.

c. The number of Neutral studies (53) is comparatively low, at 6-9% of the overall studies.

d. The number of studies that report only Hydroclimatic data is not insignificant. The number of Dry studies (184) and the number of Wet studies (182) are 20% and 19% of the overall studies respectively.
