Fig. 5

Trends shown for each month for the years 2015 to 2050 and are expressed in units per decade for surface calcium carbonate saturation with respect to aragonite (a, ΩA, mol m−3/mol m−3), surface pH (b), sea surface temperature (c, deg C), sea surface salinity (d, p.s.u.). Panels I and II correspond to GFDL-CM4 and panels III–V correspond to GFDL-ESM4. Trends are for the pan-Arctic average (black), Central Arctic Surface Waters (CASW, blue), more general Arctic Surface Waters (ASW, red), and North Atlantic Surface Waters (NASW, purple), and Sub-Arctic Surface Waters (SASW, green) clusters. Black vertical bars denote the standard error of each monthly trend.
