Extended Data Fig. 1: Slowdown of Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) in CMIP5 (RCP8.5-ECP8.5) and CMIP6 (SSP1-2.6 and SSP2-4.5).

From: Reduced CO2 uptake and growing nutrient sequestration from slowing overturning circulation

Extended Data Fig. 1

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and the Southern Meridional Overturning Circulation (SMOC) calculated from available CMIP5 models and CMIP6 models (Sv) are shown. The CESMv1 simulation is included and shown here as light blue line. Black lines show the multi-model mean, and light and dark pink shading indicate the range and one standard deviation of the overturning circulation. Black circles and error bars show mean and standard deviation of the observational estimates of MOC rates in Supplementary Table 1.
