Figure 3 : Distribution of cells with temperature changes and significant observed changes.
From: Attributing physical and biological impacts to anthropogenic climate change
Expected and observed distributions of cells with significant responses consistent with warming and distributions of cells with significant responses not consistent with warming for 5° × 5° grid cells of temperature change between 1970 and 2004 (HadCRUT3). The global total includes polar regions and marine systems. Shown is the number of cells (n) with observed impacts and temperature data, the pattern congruence between locations of significant responses and standardized temperature trends (Cz), and the probability (P) that pattern agreement could be explained by natural internal variability of temperature fields. Abbreviations: AFR, Africa; ANZ, Australia and New Zealand; AS, Asia; EUR, Europe; LA, Latin America; NAM, North America; NS, not significant.
