Fig. 5: 2015–2100 annual mean thermal component of sea surface density (SSDT) regression analysis.

From: Air quality improvements are projected to weaken the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation through radiative forcing effects

Fig. 5

Spatial maps of the AMOC time series regressed onto SSDT under a–d NMNTCF mitigation; e–h CH4 mitigation; and i–l the weak air quality (AQ) control experiment for a, e, i EC-Earth3-AerChem; b, f, j GISS-E2-1-G; c, g, k MRI-ESM2-0; and d, h, l UKESM1-0-LL. Units are kg m−3 per Sv. Symbols denote significance at the 95% confidence level based on a standard t-test.
