Extended Data Fig. 11: Projected global seawater age changes during 2041–2050.
From: Abyssal ocean overturning slowdown and warming driven by Antarctic meltwater

Vertical cross-sections of zonal-mean a) climatological mean seawater age (years) from the control run, and b,c,d) seawater age anomaly (years) during 2041–2050 from the [wind+thermal+meltwater] run, the [wind+thermal] run and the estimated meltwater component, respectively. Contours represent the climatological mean seawater age with an interval of 15 years.
