Figure 4.
Model results for the CTRL experiment (upper panels a–d) and differences between the PHYS sensitivity and CTRL experiments (PHYS-CTRL, lower panels e–f), after 500 years of run, for the mean annual sea-surface DIC (mmol m–3), TA (mmol m–3), pCO2 (µatm, the dashed line shows the 278 µatm contour), and CO2 fluxes (FCO2, g C m–2 yr−1) in the Southern Ocean (see Table 1 for characteristics of the experiments). FCO2 is expressed in g C m–2 yr−1 for ease of comparison to other values provided elsewhere. The blue line indicates the maximum winter sea ice extent; the textured areas indicate the model grid. For ease of comparison between figures, the color scales used for the PHYS-CTRL differences depicted here are the same as for the PHYS-CTRL differences depicted in Figure 3 for the Arctic Ocean.
CTRL results and PHYS-CTRL differences in Southern Ocean surface DIC, TA, pCO2 and CO2 fluxes.
