Maps of the ice-shelf basal melt rate change between the SAM+ run and the CTRL run averaged over years 25 to 29 (m water equivalent yr−1), (a) at the pan-Antarctic scale and (b–g) for each of the six regions delimited by the orange lines in (a) (see also Fig. S1). Mean values for each of the six regions are indicated in (a). Hatching indicates non-significant changes at the 95% level.
