Figure 1. The 35-year trends of winter-spring sea surface temperature, precipitation, and sea level pressure. a, observation of 1980-2014. Model-simulated 35-year trends for pre-industrial climate grouped and averaged for b, the strongest El Niño-like trends and c, the strongest  La Niña-like trends. Model-simulated 35-year trends for 1980-2014  grouped and averaged for the ensemble members d, with the strongest El Niño-like trends and e, with the strongest La Niña-like trends.
