Fig. 6: Current and future land-use scenarios in drylands.
From: Global evaluation of current and future threats to drylands and their vertebrate biodiversity
a–d, Current land-use patterns in drylands, LUH2 (2015) (a) and under SSPs: SSP1-2.6 (2100) (b), SSP2-4.5 (2100) (c) and SSP5-8.5 (2100) (d). Colour codes correspond to fraction of grid cell occupied by cropland, pasture, rangeland and urban land classes from low (yellow) to high (blue). Circles show total land cover area of 25 km2 grids occupied by some fraction of land classes above 0% (that is, total fractional land areas). Pink, total fractional land areas in 2015 (a); purple, projected additional total fractional land areas (b–d).
