Fig. 4: Cumulative probability of climate averages for different biome categories in the Amazon.

The x-axis shows the range of climate averages in the Amazon for each biome category, and the y-axis indicates the proportion of samples whose climate average is less than or equal to a given value on the x-axis. Horizontal dashed lines mark the value on the x-axis at which 50% of samples in each biome category fall below. Both highly forested and deforested regions represent grid cells from the moist forest biome but diverge by having, respectively, >80% and <60% remaining forest cover in 2021. LST stands for land surface temperature, ET for evapotranspiration, and Max. for maximum. The map on the bottom right shows all grid cells selected for the analysis. The number of selected cells for each biome category was 27 for highly deforested regions, 38 for highly forested regions, 126 for forest-savanna transitional regions, and 41 for savannas.
