Effective Design of Profiling Float Network for Oceanic Heat-Content Monitoring

Figure 2

Sensitivity of heat content in the Pacific Ocean at an allocated model time (defined as year zero) when water temperature changes by +1 K at an arbitrary 4-dimensional grid point. The panels show the impact of the change in subsurface water temperature on the heat-content increase after (a) 10 years, (b) 30 years, and (c) 50 years. The units are dimensionless.
