  1. Correlation coefficients of SST anomalies from the MITgcm PACE-EM group experiments with those from the PACE-EM-Full (normal), PACE-EM-Wind (bold) and PACE-EM-Buoy (italic) experiments for the WAbox and TSbox. Also shown are the corresponding standard deviations of SST anomalies from the various experiments. For the correlation coefficients, asterisks (*) denote statistically non-significant values at the 95% confidence level.
