Fig. 4: Net primary productivity (gC m−2 yr−1) post-fire under different scenarios of fire severity and timing.

Panels show the total NPP (annual mean ± standard error) difference from the baseline run under the RCP8.5 scenario. a NPP responses under mild, moderate, and severe fires. b broken down by plant functional type for (i) a mild, and (ii) severe fire initiated in 2007, and for a (iii) mild and (iv) severe fire initiated in 2080. Changes in PFT NPP for panels (iii) and (iv) cover years 2080–2100 (i.e., the 20 years post-fire).
