Fig. 3: Subsidence generally weakens more in models with a lower climate sensitivity than in models with a higher climate sensitivity.

From: Model spread in tropical low cloud feedback tied to overturning circulation response to warming

Zonal (a, c, e) and meridional (b, d, f) mean composites (30°S-30°N) of the change in pressure velocity (ω; hPa day−1 K−1) per degree of surface warming (dω/dTs) for (a, b) high climate sensitivity (ECS; K) and (c, d) low ECS models and the differences between high and low ECS models (e, f). The 13 highest and 13 lowest ECS models of those used in this study comprise the composites, as in Fig. 1. Stippling indicates where 9 or more models agree on the sign of the change.
