Extended Data Fig. 2: Evolution of glaciers surfaces and composition of emerging deglaciated areas from 2020 to 2100.

From: Future emergence of new ecosystems caused by glacial retreat

Extended Data Fig. 2

Glacier location30 and individual regions41 are shown on the basemap. For each region and globally, central circles refer to the modelled 2020 glacier area. On their left and right, the relative evolution of glacier surface and newly emerging habitats are shown in 2100 for the SSP-1-1.9 (low-emission scenario) and 5-8.5 (high-emission scenario) respectively. For clarity, associated uncertainties are not displayed but available in the Supplementary Table sheet 2. Basemap originates from www.naturalearthdata.com.
