The 5-year mean stream functions and contours of vertically integrated tracer concentration of 2000 for TR3 and TR4 after 5 years of model simulation. The 5-year mean stream functions for a 2009–2013 and b 2001–2005 with counters of 20, 10, 0, −10, and −20 Sv are shown with bathymetric contours of 500, 1500, 3000, and 4000 m (black contours). Contours of vertically integrated tracer concentration of 2000 for c TR3 and d TR4 after 5 years of model simulation for the CTRL (2009–2014), 2001–2006, BC09AF01, and BC01AF09 cases are shown. For c, d bathymetry is shown with light colors in the same way as Fig. 1
