Linear regression map between ΔAMOC* at 20°S (Sv °C⁻¹), and surface upward latent heat flux changes (ΔLHF* – positive upward) (W m⁻2 °C⁻¹), the contours denote the explained variance (or R2). Asterisks (*) indicate that the variables are divided by ΔGSAT for each respective CMIP6 model. Grey dots indicate areas where the linear regression is statistically significant (p value < 0.05).
