Extended Data Fig. 3: Average number of tree species per square kilometre climatically suitable across Europe (6168545 cells) under moderate climate change (RCP 2.6).
From: A climate-induced tree species bottleneck for forest management in Europe
Bars in dark green show the number of species continuously suitable from 2020 until the respective decade. For example, tree species in dark green in the 2090 s are the species that can be planted today and will be within their climatic niche throughout the entire 21st century. Bars in light green show the number of species that become additionally suitable in this decade because of climate change, but are not yet within their climatic niche under current conditions (and thus have a high planting risk today). Bars in brown show the number of species lost until this decade, relative to current conditions, that is, species that cannot be sustained within their climatic niche. Error bars show the coefficient of variation across Europe.
