Extended Data Fig. 3: Sensitivity to the definition of the reference time period.
From: Observed changes in dry-season water availability attributed to human-induced climate change
The reference period considered in Fig. 1 of the article is 1902–1950, whereas here we consider 4 alternative options: (a, b) 1902–1930, (c, d) 1911–1940, (e, f) 1921–1950 and (g, h) 1951–1980. Note that during the period 1951–1980 the influence of aerosol emissions was relatively high. Plots from the DDM reconstruction are shown on the left (a, c, e, g) and plots from the LSM reconstruction on the right (b, d, f, h). Grey lines indicate tropical boundaries at 23.5°S and 23.5°N. Antarctica, Greenland and desert regions with annual P below 100 mm are masked in grey.
