Fig. 5: Logarithmic CO mole fractions for different oxygen enrichment levels.

a–g, Oxygen enrichment levels are 10 (a), 7 (b), 5 (c), 2.5 (d), 1.25 (e), 0.6 (f) and 0.3 (g). White contours highlight the relative humidity of water to show where moist convective events occur. A relative humidity of 1.0 signifies saturation. For cases above solar enrichment, the humidity contours are limited to the range 0.8–1.0, whereas for subsolar cases they are limited to 0.75–1.0. For supersolar oxygen enrichment, saturation occurs where CO is locally enhanced due to updrafts from moist convective cells. No such saturation and underlying CO enhancement is seen in the subsolar cases.
