Extended Data Fig. 8: Leave-one-out (LOO) sensitivity analysis for temporal (a) continental and (b) North American and European and biome diversity patterns.
From: Floristic diversity and its relationships with human land use varied regionally during the Holocene

Coloured lines represent GAMs fit to the diversity data minus all pollen records from each depositional environment iteratively removed (see Methods). Heterogeneity panels are not GAMs, but distributions of the 82 runs of LOO datasets. In panel (b), ‘EU’ = Europe, ‘NA’ = North America, ‘T’ = Tundra, ‘BF/T’ = Boreal forests/Taiga, ‘TC’ = Temperate conifer forests, ‘TB’ = Temperate broadleaf & mixed forests, ‘TG’ = Temperate grasslands, savannas & shrublands and ‘MF’ = Mediterranean forests, woodlands & scrub.
