Fig. 5: The 40 major hydrological basins with the largest water gaps worldwide.
Water gaps are presented under baseline (black), 1.5 °C (orange), and 3 °C (red) warmer climate. Interval bars indicate the variability between the five climate models considered in this study. The name and outline of major hydrological basins of the world are based on data from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations75. The major hydrological basins are listed from the largest to the smallest water gaps under baseline climate conditions. X-axis data are presented using log10 scale. Detailed model-specific and scenario-specific results are presented in Supplementary Table 2.
