a Wind direction (vectors) and wind speed (contours) for the baseline climate, b wind direction and wind speed for each HS and c the wind anomalies between both baseline climate (a) and the simulations for each HS (b). The simulation represents the experiment with a freshwater flux of 0.4 Sv and a duration of 300 years. The squares in the map represent the area where the West Mediterranean and West-Central African records are located.
