Figure scripts used to generate the manuscript figures are found in the directory figure_scripts. These require Ferret software (NOAA free software)

cntl_clim directory is the CNTL_clim simulation model output (no microplastic effects)
All directories with a *_cntl title are model output from the CNTL ensemble.
All netcdf files with a *small* in the title are from the SLOW_small ensemble.
All netcdf files with a *diff* in the title are postprocessed SLOW-CNTL of ensemble mean.
All netcdf files with a *std* in the title are postprocessed standard deviation of SLOW-CNTL of ensemble mean.
All netcdf files with *mean* in the title are postprocessed ensemble mean.
All netcdf files with *robust* in the title are postprocessed using the "sign*".jnl files in figure_scripts.
