In the original manuscript, Figs. 7–16 included fonts which were not correctly embedded in the file. As such, unless cer-tain propriety software (ArcGIS) is installed on the viewing platform, the figures will appear corrupted. In this Corrigen-dum, Figs. 7–16 and their captions are reproduced with the fonts correctly embedded.

Fig. 10. Improvements in the model–data comparison for mean annual temperature. The lefthand column(A, B)shows the improvement that the late Miocene palaeogeography makes to the model–data comparison. The righthand column(C, D)shows the improvement that higher CO2makes to the model–data comparison. Green circles indicate an improvement; red circles indicate a deterioration. The datapoints

showing “no difference” are plotted underneath the other datapoints in order to highlight the differences.
