Extended Data Fig. 6: Changes in negative GPP extremes attributed to their main climate driver between the 2000–2016 and 1982–1998 periods.

From: Increasing impact of warm droughts on northern ecosystem productivity over recent decades

Extended Data Fig. 6

The cumulative GPP anomalies linked with GPP extremes attributed to the climate driver showing the highest coinciding anomalies (that is, the main driver; see Methods) were calculated for each study period and then subtracted from one another (2000–2016 minus 1982–1998; attributed ΔGPP). a–c, The corresponding attributed ΔGPP to each of the three significant climate drivers SPEI (a), SPI (b) and concurrent low precipitation (c). Here, each negative GPP extreme event was attributed only to the climate drivers that showed the largest coinciding anomaly thus the corresponding GPP anomaly contributed only to the balance of that driver (panels; in contrary to Fig. 3). Each map was derived as the mean of the three datasets (originating from the median across the ensemble members of: LUE, FLUXCOM and TRENDY).
