Figure 2. The time-mean AMOC streamfunction from (A-C )
a high-resolution (1/12°) ocean simulation (HYCOM) and (D-F )
the first four years of data from the OSNAP mooring array (Li et al.,
2021). The left column (A, D ) displays the streamfunction in
depth coordinates, the middle column (B, E ) in density
coordinates (𝜎2 in B and 𝜎𝜃 inE ), and right column (C, F ) in density coordinates
remapped into depth space using the zonal mean depth of each density
layer. Note the non-linear y-axis in panel B . PanelsA-C are reproduced from Xu et al. (2018). © American
