The baseline period ranges from 1985 to 2014. a, c Regionally averaged ensemble time series showing the mean (solid lines) and interquartile range calculated across all models (colored shading). Anomalies from the observations (OBS) are denoted as GSWP3-W5E5 (1971−2019). The light gray shadings indicate 1985−2014, 2031−2060, and 2071−2100, the time periods used for construction of the boxplots and jitter plots. b, d Boxplots and jitter plots of the mean anomalies of the observations and five GCMs under each SSP scenario. The boxplots indicate the 25−75th percentile (box), with two standard deviations (whiskers), and mean values (line) of the estimated values for each period. The colored dots show the averaged values of each GCM.
