Climatology (contour) and linear trends (shade) of summer mean meridional temperature gradient (-dT/dy, unit: K 1000 km−1 decade−1) and zonal winds (unit: m s−1 decade−1) zonally averaged between 90°E and 120°E during 1979–2014 in all (ALL, a, b), greenhouse gas (GHG, c, d), aerosol (AER, e, f) and natural (NAT, g, h) forcing simulations from CMIP6. The black points indicate changes with high inter-model agreement defined as at least eight of eleven models agreeing on the direction of change.
