Fig. 1: Prevalence of overweight children under 5 in LMICs (2000–2017).

a,b, Prevalence of overweight among children under 5 at 5 × 5-km resolution in 2000 (a) and 2017 (b). c, Overlapping population-weighted lowest and highest 10% of grid cells and AROC in overweight from 2000 to 2017. d, Overlapping population-weighted quartiles of overweight and relative 95% uncertainty in 2017. Maps reflect administrative boundaries, land cover, lakes and population; gray colored areas have grid cells classified as ‘barren or sparsely vegetated’ and had fewer than ten people per 1 × 1-km grid cell in 2017 or were not included in this analysis39,40,41,42,43,44,45.
