Extended Data Fig. 6: Atlantic meridional ocean heat transport (OHT) on average under PiControl, SSP126 and SSP585 scenario.

From: Intensified Atlantic multidecadal variability in a warming climate

Extended Data Fig. 6

a, The OHT under PiControl scenario. Unit is PW (1 PW = 1015 W). b, Same as a, but for the SSP126 scenario. c, Same as a, but for the SSP585 scenario. The Atlantic OHT is northward in both hemispheres and across the equator due to the AMOC, with a maximum OHT value located around 20°N. The OHT decreases in response to global warming.
