Figure 4.13 Change in sea ice concentration and thickness in March. Downscaled GISS sea ice concentration (upper left), NCAR sea ice concentration (upper right), NorESM sea ice concentration (lower left), and NorESM sea ice thickness (lower right). The upper plots are from Sandø et al. (2014a) and show change between present (1981–2000, data from the 20C3M control run) and future (2046–2065, A1B scenario). In the lower plots, change is between 2010–2019 and 2060–2069 using the RCP4.5 scenario (Bentsen et al., 2013).
