From: Assessing ecosystem vulnerability under severe uncertainty of global climate change
Species richness of the 42 forest plots at their worst-case scenarios with increasing uncertainty in TMMAT (k). Dashed horizontal lines indicate 90%, 75%, and 50% of the initial species richness maintained at TMMAT. Points on the lines indicate change from the initial forest type, and the color indicates the shifted forest type (see Fig. 3). In the top panel showing the four boreal coniferous forest plots, arrows indicate maximum acceptable uncertainty (0.1 °C interval) for 75% species maintenance in each plot.
