Fig. 3: Spatial patterns of trends for disturbance regimes within each 0.5° grid cell across China’s forests.

From: Forest disturbance decreased in China from 1986 to 2020 despite regional variations

Fig. 3

(a) total annual disturbed forest area (km2 yr−1), (b) percent of forest disturbed annually (% yr−1), (c) disturbance frequency (# of patches per 1000 km2 forest), (d) mean patch size (ha yr-1), and (e) fire severity (ΔNDVI yr-1, delta Normalized Difference Vegetation Index). Points indicated a significant trend at 0.05 levels for disturbance regimes.
