Fig. 5: Probability density functions (PDFs) and cumulative density function (CDFs) for sea level contribution at t = 150 years.

From: Calculations of extreme sea level rise scenarios are strongly dependent on ice sheet model resolution

Fig. 5

Prior distribution means of (a) \({M}_{{t}_{0}}=10\) m a−1, (b) \({M}_{{t}_{0}}=20\) m a−1, and (c) mean \({M}_{{t}_{0}}=40\) m a−1 are shown. P(S < S*) describes the probability of drawing a sample S that is less than a given value (S*) selected on the x-axis. Colours indicate resolution: 2 km (blue), 3 km (orange), 4 km (green), 5 km (red), 6 km (purple), 7 km (brown), 8 km (pink).
