Fig. 4: The drivers of global vegetation change.
From: Anthropogenic climate change has driven over 5 million km2 of drylands towards desertification
The changes in NDVImax between 1982 and 2015 (ΔNDVImax) attributed to (a) CO2 fertilization, (b) climate variability, (c) climate change, and (d) land use. Non-dryland and hyper-arid regions are masked in dark gray. Areas where the change did not meet the multi-run ensemble significance criteria detailed in the “ Methods,” or are smaller than the error in the sensors (±0.001) are masked in white.
