Fig. 1: Surface Temperature (Tsurf) around forest edges.
corrected for satellite scene and overpass, as well as elevation: y-axis represents partial residuals. x-axis represents distance to forest edge in metres with 0 being the edge, positive numbers indicating the distance into the forest (green shading), and negative numbers the distance outside the forest; dark blue - summer, light blue - spring, beige - autumn, brown – winter, grey – standard error. a–d curves of Tsurf across forest edges; e–h difference in Tsurf between the edge (30 m) and the forest interior (500 m), error bars denote standard error; Curves were predicted based on BAMs with: global n = 11,064,798; tropical n = 3,314,823; temperate n = 5,086,080; boreal n = 2,237,755; Statistics for the underlying BAMs are documented in Supplementary Table 3. For delineation criteria of seasons, see Supplementary Table 1, for delineation of biomes, see Supplementary Table 2. For the same analysis in the tropics using wet and dry season, see Supplementary Fig. 2. For the difference in Tsurf between the edge (50 m) and the forest interior (1000 m) (analogous to e−h) see Supplementary Fig. 9.
