UKESM1-forced BORIS-1 seafloor biomass under CMIP6 SSPs

<p>Change in total simulated seafloor biomass between the late Scenario period (2081-2100) and late Historical period (1995-2014) under the SSP scenarios 126 to 585. Simulations use the benthic BORIS model (Kelly-Gerreyn et al., Biogeosciences, 2014) forced using output from the UKESM1 model (Sellar et al., JAMES, 2019; Yool et al., GMD, 2021) in the same experimental design used in Yool et al. (GCB, 2017). Simulations use Matlab v2020a.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Kelly-Gerreyn, B. A., Martin, A. P., Bett, B. J., Anderson, T. R., Kaariainen, J. I., Main, C. E., Marcinko, C.
