Schematic illustration

Option 1: Schematic to introduce the three different mechanisms we suggest. Option 2: Summarising schematic at end of paper.

A very first and rough attempt for schematic summarising the processes active in the perturbation experiments:

Very nice -- I would say appropriate for option 2, as many of the mechanisms on the RHS will require the reader to understand the full set of experiments ...

I'm including this work in a seminar I'm giving tomorrow, so made some schematics to include in my talk. Not sure if this is what we want for paper or not though. I had trouble fitting brine rejection in. And have yet to check if the temperature changes from the zonal/meridional perturbations match this (oops, should really have done that first!).

Easterlies mechanism:

Northerlies mechanism:

[adele-morrison]

Actually, have updated the zonal one to be representative of the temperature anomaly, to match the meridional one (when I first made the zonal one I was thinking about explaining/showing the background control temperature gradient, rather than the change):

Also have updated the temperature anomaly field on the northerlies schematic, so there's no anomaly in the upper ocean to the north:

Very nice!!

I agree, looking good. BTW, I can confirm that ice volume does decrease in the WIND+ case - I went to calculate this and it was already done in one of Paul's notebooks. The ice volume goes down by about 5e10m^3 - mostly in the first year, and the remainder in the second year. In contrast, the net melt is ~0.01 Sv, which is ~1e9m^3/day. So the change in ice volume is about ~50 days of net melt. But it only really happens in the first year, so I would say this is a good indication that the net melt is not a reflection of changing ice volume ...
