Fig. 2: Consistent tropospheric response to Arctic sea ice loss.
From: Robust but weak winter atmospheric circulation response to future Arctic sea ice loss
Zonally averaged DJF zonal wind response (\(\bar{u}\), ms−1, where the overbar denotes the zonal average) plotted as a function of latitude (°N) and height (pressure) for the ensemble mean of each of the models. The boxes show the regions used to compute the zonal wind response index (ZWRI). Stippling indicates where the ensemble mean response is significant (95% confidence interval). Contours show the climatological zonal mean winds (contour interval 5 ms−1 with negative contours dotted).
