Extended Data Fig. 4: Accounting for interannual variation in precipitation partitioning in the present and future.
From: Mid-latitude freshwater availability reduced by projected vegetation responses to climate change
Performance of a statistical model of model- and region-based interannual WY (a) canopy partitioning, C/P, (b) runoff partitioning (Q/P), (c) and soil + storage partitioning (S/P). In each panel, the partitioning predicted by the statistical model (x-axis) is plotted against its actual value as simulated by the CMIP5 models for each grid point in each region. Historical years (1976–2005) and future years (2070–2099) are shown. The statistical model for each partitioning ratio and period is the same: Y = β0 + β1*(WY P) + β2*(WY T) + β3*( < X > ), where Y is either WY C/P, WY Q/P, WY S/P and < X > is a set of model and region control variables. The 1:1 line is shown in each panel.
