  1. Mean differences and asymmetric standard deviations of temperature and salinity between the December 2014 occupation of section A12 and the climatology, for each water mass (Fig. 3c). The standard deviation is calculated separately for positive and negative anomalies to account for asymmetry, and is reported as “+(positive SD) / –(negative SD)”.
