Extended Data Fig. 3: Effects of macroclimate changes on vegetation growth across cities worldwide.

From: Contrasting effects of urbanization on vegetation between the Global South and Global North

Extended Data Fig. 3

a, EVI in 2000 for cities worldwide. b, Probability density of cities with different EVIs in 2000. c, The extent of vegetation growth enhancement driven by macroclimate change (γ) for global cities during 2000–2019. d, Probability density of cities with different γ. e, Hypothetical EVI changes (VI') only driven by macroclimate changes (without considering the increased urbanization) for global cities during 2000–2019. f, Probability density of cities with different VI'. The red lines are the average values of each variable of the cities weighted by the urban area.
