Temporal evolution of various torque components exerted by the gas on the migrating planet and displayed with a moving average of 5 orbits, for the three runs ℳ10 (left panel), ℳ200 (middle panel), and ℳ300 (right panel). The total torque (black solid curves) is decomposed in three components, coming from different regions: the torque from the inner disk associated to the inner Lindblad torque 〈ΓLi 〉5orb (blue curves, 〈ΓLi 〉5orb ≳ 0), the torque from the outer disk associated to the outer Lindblad torque 〈ΓLo 〉5orb (red curves, 〈ΓLo 〉5orb ≲ 0), and the torque in the planet gap associated to the corotation torque 〈ΓC〉5orb (yellow curves, 〈ΓC〉5orb ≲ 0). All these torques are normalized by Γ0 . A proxy for the mass reservoir enclosed in the gap is represented via the black dashed line.
