Fig. 6: Spatial distribution of unconstrained and constrained changes in precipitation and runoff.

The probability distribution functions (PDFs) are aggregated by the land area fraction that experienced a certain change of precipitation (a1–d1) and runoff (a2–d2). The shadings and percentages in the subplots are the land area fraction which will experience a significant increase in the unconstrained (blue) and constrained (red) projections. The significant increase is defined as the increase exceeds the range of inter-model standard deviation (see Methods). The constrained projection of runoff is based on the relationship between runoff changes and precipitation changes (see Methods).
