- Fig. 10: the Atlantic meridional stream function (AMSF) strongly decreases in the 2 wide domain experiments (left column), decreases in the 2 middle domain experiments (middle column), doesn't change much in the BSO experiment (top right panel) and increases in the Bering Strait experiment (bottom right panel); interestingly, in the wide domain experiments (left column), the AMSF increases in the upper layers north of 60N, which is in agreement with the increased OHT north of 60N (Fig. 1); the overall AMSF decrease in the first 2 columns is in agreement with the reduced convection already identified in the mixed layer depth in Fig. 8 of the Atlantic [SST restoring experiments](SST restoring experiments).
