Fig. 6: C^TWS and C^T in tropical continents and northern extra-tropical subregions.

C^TWS and C^T indicate contributions to the global correlations of interannual variability of net ecosystem exchange against terrestrial water storage and temperature, respectively. As shown in panel a, the tropics is divided into three continents (Trop.Am tropical America, Trop.Af tropical Africa, Trop.As tropical Asia, with the latter including northern Australia). Northern Hemisphere (NH, >25°N) is divided into ten subregions. BAm Boreal America, NEu North Europe, NAs North Asia, TEu Temperate Europe, WAm Western North America, EAm Eastern North America, Med Mediterranean, CAs Central Asia, SAs South Asia and subtropical China, and NEAs Northern East Asia. For atmospheric inversions and FLUXCOM models, the black edges of the rectangles in panel b indicate that the signs of the C^TWS or C^T are the same among all models. For DGVMs from the TRENDY project, the black edges of the rectangles in panel b indicate that the signs of C^TWS or C^T derived from more than 10 out of 14 models are consistent with those from the model ensemble mean.
