Fig. 2: Comparison of the projected marine heatwave (MHW) stress and mean-state sea surface temperature (SST) changes in the eastern boundary upwelling systems (EBUSs) under greenhouse warming between CESM-H and high-resolution coupled global climate models (CGCMs) in CMIP6.

a Boxplots of coastal and oceanic trend difference (COTD) of mean-state SST in the individual CGCMs. b Scatterplot of COTD of MHW stress vs. COTD of mean-state SST in the individual CGCMs. The solid gray line represents the linear regression line, with the blue dashed lines corresponding to its 95% confidence interval. All the COTD values are the spatial average over the regions delineated by the green boxes in Fig. 1a–h.
