Fig. 3. Risk assessment of future changes in potential tree cover. (A) Illustration of expected losses in potential tree cover by 2050, under the "business as usual" climate change scenario (RCP 8.5), from the average of three Earth system models commonly used in ecology (cesm1cam5, cesm1bgc, and mohchadgem2es). (B) Quantitative numbers of potential gain and loss are illustrated by bins of 5° along a latitudinal gradient.
