Extended Data Fig. 10: Changes in model results in the climate change sensitivity experiment.
From: Vertically migrating phytoplankton fuel high oceanic primary production
Changes in model results in the climate change sensitivity experiment. a, Difference in the fraction of migrating phytoplankton in the surface layer (Δ %Mobile Surf, annual mean). The fraction for the reference chemocline distribution (‘1985’) is subtracted from the one after modification of zN based on future changes in mixed layer depth as projected by a simulation of the Max-Planck-Institute Earth System Model (‘2085’). b, Change in the nitrogen upward transport flux by migrating phytoplankton (Δ N-flux) from the reference simulation to the one with projected chemocline distribution. c, Concomitant change in the relative contribution of migrating phytoplankton to NPPΣ (Δ %NPP mobile).
