Jackson, Laura C, Helene T. Hewitt, Diego Bruciaferri, Daley Calvert, Tim Graham, Catherine Guiavarc’h, Matthew B. Menary, Adrian L. New, Malcolm Roberts and David Storkey, 2023: Challenges simulating the AMOC in climate models, submitted to Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A.

Fig 1 calculated correlations between AMOC strength or trend in 1% CO2 experiment (values given in CMIP6_AMOC.txt) and sea surface salinity fields in the controls (fields for each model given in CMIP6_SSS.nc)

We also include data of the AMOC streamfunction (*amoc.nc), March mixed layer depth (MarchMLD.nc) and temperature and salinity fields (TS.nc) for the mean of years 20-30 of models HadGEM3-GC3-1ML, MM and MH. These models are documented here doi:10.5194/gmd-2019-148. This data was used for plotting figures 2-4. 

Data for Fig 5 is in HadGEM3-GC3-1MM-noGM-av-20-40_MarchMLD.nc and HadGEM3-GC3-1MM-withGM-av-20-40_MarchMLD.nc

Data for Fig 6 is in HadGEM3-GC1_control_20390301_20780330_MLD.nc and HadGEM3-GC1_relax_20390301_20780330_MLD.nc

Data for Fig 7 is included in https://zenodo.org/record/7764695
