Fig. 2: Mean annual rainfall anomalies per forest loss percent within 28-, 56-, 112- and 224-km grid cells.
From: Deforestation reduces rainfall and agricultural revenues in the Brazilian Amazon
Two piecewise linear segments from MARS algorithm: a D < 57.5% (blue line) and D > = 57.5% (red line) for 28-km grid cells. b D < 47.5% (blue line) and D > = 47.5% (red line) for 56-km grid cells. c D < 27.5% (blue line) and D > = 27.5% (red line) for 112-km grid cells. d Best-fit linear model (dashed red line) for 224-km grid cells. Error bar represents the standard error of the mean rainfall anomaly for each forest loss interval. P’i,j,t are the residual annual rainfall anomalies (in mm/year), where the subscripts i and j represent space dimensions and the subscript t represents time dimension. D represents the progressive forest loss fraction (in percentage).
