Predicted future changes in land area crossing the aridity threshold for plant aboveground biomass under the RCP 8.5 scenario by 2100.

Caption

Panels A and B show the frequency distributions of changes in aridity and nitrogen deposition, respectively. Panel C shows predicted future changes in land area crossing the observed aridity threshold; the comparisons between scenarios considering (a, c, e, g, i, k) and not including (b, d, f, h, j, l) the effects of nitrogen deposition are also shown.
