Extended Data Fig. 7: Differences between the potential and actual evaporation over the ocean based on 32 CMIP6 models.

From: Neglecting land–atmosphere feedbacks overestimates climate-driven increases in evapotranspiration

Extended Data Fig. 7

a-c, Multi-model mean differences between the energy-based PETe and ET during the historical period (1980-2009), the future period (2071-2100), and their changes (future minus historical). d-f, The same as a-c, but for the differences between the PET based on land atmosphere coupling (PETLAC) and ET. Grid cells where the absolute difference between PET and ET is less than 0.05 mm/day are shown in grey. Each panel reports the mean and one standard deviation of the PET-ET difference (bias) across all ocean grid cells. Basemap in a-f made with Natural Earth56.
