Strength of the global ocean warming signal from PCM (Parallel Climate
Model) forced with observed/BAU anthropogenic forcing beginning in 1870
relative the signal predicted in 2100. Three different realizations
are shown (horizontal bars) for decadal average signal strength.
Blue/greens are from observed/estimated GHG emissions, while yellow/reds
are from BAU scenarios. Observed signal strength from ocean data
assimilation for 6 years in the mid-1990s is shown with green circles.
The model captured the observed warming quite well.
