- Fig. 14: the March sea-surface salinity (SSS) spatial pattern is relatively similar between the wide/middle domain Atlantic and Pacific SST experiments, with surface freshening in the western Arctic and northern North Atlantic and surface salinization in the eastern Arctic (similar as the PRIMAVERA coupled sea-ice loss experiments);

|
- Fig. 15: the March sea-level pressure (SLP) spatial pattern shows differences between experiments, but the SLP increases over NW Europe / GIN Seas and over the Bering Sea, while it decreases over North America and central Asia;

|
- Fig. 16: the total ocean volume transport (OVT) through all Arctic straits increases in the wide and middle domain experiments and slightly decreases in the small domain experiments;

- Fig. 17: the OVT at the BSO increases in all experiments;

- Fig. 18: the OVT at the Bering Strait decreases in the wide domain experiments and does not change much in the other experiments;
|

|
- Fig. 19: the total OHT changes through all Arctic straits are mainly driven by the changes in temperature and the temperature-velocity covariance;

- Fig. 21: for the Atlantic experiments, the OHT changes at the BSO are first driven by the changes in temperature, with considerable influence of the velocity and covariance contributions for the wide Atlantic experiment; for the Pacific experiments, the OHT changes at the BSO are shared by all 3 contributions;
