Zonally averaged values of signal (red) and noise (black) are shown where signal is the mean difference in the variable between 1989 - 2039 and 1860 - 1910, and noise is the standard deviation of the variable for 1860 - 1910.
... Polar amplification explains in part why Greenland Ice Sheet and the West Antarctic Ice Sheet appear to be highly sensitive to relatively small increases in CO2 concentration and global mean temperature... Polar amplification occurs if the magnitude of zonally averaged surface temperature change at high latitudes exceeds the globally averaged temperature change, in response to climate forcings and on time scales greater than the annual cycle.
