Fig. 5: Evolution of density, temperature, salinity and density gradient.
From: Weakened circulation in the deep South China Sea triggered by prolonged warming

Maps of vertically averaged a density, b temperature, and c salinity in the deep SCS in EX1; d–f corresponding results for EX2; maps of vertically averaged density gradient in g EX1 and h EX2 in the deep SCS; i the difference in density gradient between EX2 and EX1.
