Description:
Data for Figure 9.10 from Chapter 9 of the Working Group I (WGI) Contribution to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6).
Figure 9.10 shows Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) strength in simulations and sensitivity to resolution and forcing.

Figure subpanels
---------------------------------------------------
The figure has 4 subpanels, with data for all panels contained in the code archived on Zenodo which is linked in the documentation. Data and code can also be found on the GitHub repository for chapter 9 linked in the documentation.
---------------------------------------------------
List of data provided
---------------------------------------------------
This dataset contains:
- AMOC magnitude (units: Sverdrup (Sv) = 109 kg s–1) in PMIP experiments (Top left).
- Time series of AMOC from CMIP5 and CMIP6 based on (Menary et al., 2020b) (Top right).
- Percent change in AMOC strength per year at different resolutions over the 1950–2050 period with colours for model families (Roberts et al., 2020) (Bottom left).
- A compilation of percentage changes in the simulated AMOC after applying an additional freshwater flux in the subpolar North Atlantic at the surface for a limited time (de Vries and Weber, 2005; Stouffer et al., 2006; Yin and Stouffer, 2007; Jackson, 2013; Liu and Liu, 2013; Jackson and Wood, 2018; Haskins et al., 2019) (Bottom right).
Symbols indicate whether the AMOC recovers within 200 years (circles), is starting to recover (upwards arrow), or does not recover within 200 years (downwards arrow). Symbol size indicates rate of freshwater input.
Further details on data sources and processing are available in the chapter data table (Table 9.SM.9).
