Extended Data Fig. 8: The response of the Pacific subtropical meridional overturning circulation to sea ice loss.

From: Tropical climate responses to projected Arctic and Antarctic sea-ice loss

Extended Data Fig. 8

(Shading) The depth-latitude response of the Pacific subtropical meridional overturning circulation [Sv] to (a) Arctic sea ice loss, (b) Antarctic sea ice loss and (c) both Arctic and Antarctic sea ice loss. (Contours) The climatological meridional overturning circulation with contour intervals of 5 Sv. The solid lines indicate positive values (clockwise flow), the dashed lines indicate negative values (anti-clockwise flow) and the thick black contour indicates the 0 Sv contour.
