[C/H] for the simulation HKB-fid as a function of time for Jupiter and Saturn. The uncertainties are shown by the extent of the filled-in areas and are due to the uncertainties over the respective atmospheric mass in which the CO can mix (i.e. between a diluted 60 M_⊕ diffuse core for both planets and a 20, 30 M_⊕ solid core for Saturn and Jupiter, respectively).
