Trophic amplification: A model intercomparison of climate driven changes in marine food webs

Disagreement among MEMs most often occurs in the polar regions (above 70˚N and below 60˚S under IPSL and GFDL forcing). Models are globally in agreement across the major parts of the ocean, in 66% and 70% of the ocean’s waters for GFDL (Fig 6) and IPSL (S6 Fig), respectively. Fig 4. Spatial distribution of total consumer biomass response types, for the seven considered MEMs forced with GFDL-SSP5-8.5. Each response type is estimated at a 1˚ × 1˚ resolution, from the change in consumer biomass and NPP expected at the end of the century, relative to the reference period (Figs 1 and S1A). https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0287570.g004 PLOS ONE Trophic amplification revealed PLOS ONE | https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0287570 August 23, 2023 9 / 23
