Extended Data Fig. 5: Shifting sources of irrigation withdrawal in the Indus basin during the month of August.
From: South Asian agriculture increasingly dependent on meltwater and groundwater
Dots indicate annual fractional basin-averaged contribution to irrigation withdrawal from groundwater (x-axis), meltwater (y-axis) and rainfall and baseflow (indicated by grey lines), for inidvidual years 1981–2100. Convex hulls indicate the range of years 1981–2010, 2036–2065, and 2071–2100). The color scale shows the 30 year moving average starting at 1981–2010 and ending at 2071–2100. Separate plots are shown for cold/wet (a), cold/dry (b), warm/dry (c), and warm/wet (d) future scenarios. In each panel results are shown for RCP4.5-SSP1 (lower left part of panel) and RCP8.5-SSP3 (upper right part of panel, with flipped axis direction).
