Figure 1

Global probabilities of development of novel climatic conditions, global rates of endemism and species richness of vertebrates, and global probabilities of disappearance of existing climatic conditions. Global probabilities of development of novel climatic conditions by 2100 (A); darker shading indicates higher probability, under scenarios of development of high (A2) and mid-range (B1) atmospheric CO2 concentrations (modified from ref. [9]). (B) Global rates of endemism and species richness of vertebrates; the spectrum from pale tan, through green and blue, to red indicates increasing endemism and richness (modified from ref. [10]). (C) As in (A), but global probabilities of disappearance of existing climatic conditions by 2100 (modified from ref. [9]).
