Fig. 5: Numbers of extreme wet/dry years counted per decade and total percentages of extreme years based on reconstructed and observed streamflow for the five gauging stations.

From: Reconstructed eight-century streamflow in the Tibetan Plateau reveals contrasting regional variability and strong nonstationarity

(a and f) Tangnaihai (TNH, Yellow); (b and g) Zhimenda (ZMD, Yangtze); (c and h) Changdu (CD, Lancang-Mekong); (d and i) Jiayuqiao (JYQ, Nu-Salween); and (e and j) Nuxia (NX, Yarlung Zangbo-Brahmaputra). For Fig. 5 (f)–(j), stacked bar plots of ‘Recon’ represent percentages of extreme years based on reconstructed streamflow during the pre-instrumental periods (1200‒1960, but 1200‒1979 for JYQ), while the stacked bar plots of ‘Simu’ and ‘Obs’ represent percentages of extreme years based on reconstructed and observed streamflow during the instrumental periods (1961‒2012, but 1980‒2012 for JYQ).
