Fig. 4

The dependence of a, b subtropical and c, d subpolar gyres on the wind and buoyancy forcing for both small and large vertical diffusivity. Contours represent the strength of gyres in different experiments, with red and blue contours representing the non-eddy and eddy-resolving solutions, respectively. Values of 0, 1, and 2 in the buoyancy (wind) axis represent no-buoyancy (wind), reference, and double-buoyancy (wind) cases (listed in Table 1), respectively
