Fig. 2.10. Array of 42 overlapping SST anomaly patches used in the GCM experiments. Peak amplitude is 1.5 K. Only the 0.75 contour is drawn for each patch. Differing line thickness is only to reduce visual clutter. The shaded field in the background is the standard deviation of January-mean SSTs for 1950-95, with darker shading for values greater than 1 K.
