Fig. 4: Interannual and seasonal variability in CMIP6 simulations.
From: Dominant inflation of the Arctic Ocean’s Beaufort Gyre in a warming climate

a–c The standard deviation (SD) of annual mean (a) freshwater content (FWC), (b) sea surface height (SSH) and (c) surface geostrophic current (SGC) speeds in the Beaufort Gyre. The SD was calculated after detrending. Red marks in the boxes indicate the median and the bottom and top edges of the boxes indicate the 25th percentile and 75th percentile, respectively. The black vertical lines extend to the most extreme data points not considered outliers. The black circle denotes outliers. Individual models are indicated by red dots. d–f, Seasonal variability of (a) FWC, (b) SSH and (c) SGC speeds in the Beaufort Gyre. Annual means are subtracted to obtain seasonal cycles.
