The monthly anomalies in regional mean vegetation growth/productivity and land carbon uptake proxies, and climate factors from April 2014 to October 2016 over the Northern Hemisphere (NH).

Caption

(a)−(h) show the monthly anomalies in GIMMS NDVI (NDVIG), MODIS NDVI (NDVIM), TRENDY LAI (LAIT), GIMMS FPAR (FPARG), MODIS GPP (GPPM), TRENDY GPP (GPPT), CAMS NEE (NEEC) and JENA NEE (NEEJ), respectively. (i)−(k) show the monthly anomalies in temperature (TEM), total precipitation (PRE) and soil moisture content (SWC), respectively. The dotted lines indicate the boundaries between years. The red shadows indicate the upper and lower limits in the 5th and 95th confidence interval percentiles by Monte Carlo simulations. The light blue, green and gray shadows indicate the spring, summer and autumn in 2015 and 2016, respectively.
