Fig. 6: Key climate variables.
From: Rise and fall of sea ice production in the Arctic Ocean’s ice factories
Timeseries of climate variables from CESM-LE used in the linear model, with observation-based estimates superimposed in red (from ERA5, NASA Goddard, Polar Pathfinder, NOAA OI SSTv2, HADISST and SnowModel-LG). All 40 ensemble members shown in light blue (20C) and orange (RCP8.5). Ensemble mean indicated by darker lines. a Surface air temperatures, CESM-LE ensemble-mean ΔT in blue; (b) Sep sea ice area (SIA), CESM-LE ensemble-mean Sep open water area (ASep) in blue; (c) net area diverged; (d) compensated area diverged; (e) September sea surface temperature (Sep SST); (f) Snow depth on ice.
