From: North Atlantic temperature and salinity changes are driven by external forcing, underestimated by CMIP6 models

Fig. 2

Depth (0-2000 m) averaged NA temperature (a, b) and zonally averaged meridional profiles of temperature (c, d). Depth averaged NA salinities (e, f) and zonally averaged profiles of salinity (g, h). ALL refers to the CMIP6 historical runs (up to yr 2014) and the scenario SSP5-8.5 beyond 2014 with all forcings included. Dots show where more than 60% of models agree on the sign of changes.
