Fig. 2: Predicted changes in phenological trait variation (decile richness) on the landscape (area) across the P. angustifolia species range, three genetic provenances, two future time periods (2055 and 2085), and two relative concentration pathways (rcp 4.5 and 8.5). | Communications Biology

Fig. 2: Predicted changes in phenological trait variation (decile richness) on the landscape (area) across the P. angustifolia species range, three genetic provenances, two future time periods (2055 and 2085), and two relative concentration pathways (rcp 4.5 and 8.5).

Fig. 2

The lighter color lines within each bar represents rcp 4.5 predictions while the darker color within each bar represents rcp 8.5 predictions. Lines across each bar represent the predictions made from each of the three Atmosphere and Ocean General Circulation/Climate models (AOGCMs) for each time and rcp. Zeros only represent no change in trait variation if there was variation to begin with (i.e., they do not represent area of unsuitable climatic conditions). Positive values indicate gains in trait variation.
