Fig. 3: Greenland surface mass balance comparison between downscaled CMIP5 and CMIP6 MAR simulations.
From: Greater Greenland Ice Sheet contribution to global sea level rise in CMIP6
a Annual Greenland Ice Sheet wide integrated annual SMB from six CMIP5 forced MAR simulations (blue) and five CMIP6 MAR simulations (orange) in Gigatonnes per year (Gt/yr). The dark blue line represents the mean of all CMIP5 MAR simulations (6, RCP8.5) and dark orange is the mean of all CMIP6 MAR simulations (5, SSP585). The individual runs are shown in lighter colors. b Same as a but for the cumulative GrIS SMB anomalies (Gt), based on the 1961–1990 average of the simulations.
