Extended Data Fig. 4: Percentage of species exposed to extreme thermal events per assemblage averaged across 14 biome types by 2099.

From: Future temperature extremes threaten land vertebrates

Extended Data Fig. 4

Results are shown for a. frequency, b. duration, and c. intensity of extreme events for all land vertebrates and major taxonomic groups. The numbers on top of the bar plot represent the corresponding biome type (legend provided on top of the figure). Results are shown for the SSP5–8.5. Results for other scenarios are presented in Supplementary Fig. S27–S29. SSP5–8.5 corresponds to a mean global warming of 4.4 °C by 2100 compared to pre-industrial conditions (1850–1900).
