Fig. 6: Summer Arctic sea ice volume tendencies and shortwave radiation fluxes (1956–1980) under different forcing agents in CESM1.
From: Distinct impacts of diverse forcing agents on Arctic sea ice since the mid-twentieth century

Boreal summer (JJA) ensemble mean of (a–d) net sea ice volume tendencies at the top (frazil + meltt, shading in 10−1 km3 month−1) and e–h surface net shortwave radiation fluxes (positive downward, shading in W m−2) for the period 1956–1980 under (a, e) historical climate forcings (HIST), only driven by (b, f) well-mixed greenhouse gases (GHGs), c, g anthropogenic aerosols (AAER), or d, h biomass burning (BMB).
