Fig. 3: Features of FEP SSTA phase-locking for SDM simulations fitted to observations.
From: The mechanism of boreal summer SSTA phase-locking in the far eastern Pacific

a Seasonal variance and b peak phase histogram of FEP SSTA (red bars) and its residual SST component (blue bars). The peak phase histogram of residual FEP SSTA (bars) for c SDM-α simulations, d SDM-β simulations, and e SDM-f simulations. In (c–e), the red curves with dots denote the annual mean-removed α, β, and f, and red circles on the right y-axis indicate the annual mean of α, β, and f. In (a–e), the vertical lines or shading denote the range of the minimum and maximum values between different observed datasets.
