Fig. 10: Relatively consistent tropospheric responses but contrasting stratospheric responses are found between different PAMIP models in response to projected Arctic sea ice loss.

Zonally averaged DJF zonal wind response (ms−1) plotted as a function of latitude (°N) and height (pressure) for the ensemble mean of each of the models. The boxes show the regions used to compute the zonal wind response index. Stippling indicates where the ensemble mean response is significant (95% confidence interval). Contours show the climatological zonal mean winds (contour interval 5 ms−1 with negative contours dotted). This figure is taken from Smith et al.
