Projected speeds of the poleward expansion of the suitable habitat for Ecklonia cava under the four RCP scenarios. The speeds were calculated from differences in the northern position of the habitats between 2000s and 2090s
| Projected speeds of the poleward expansion of the suitable habitat for E. cava [km/year] | Northern position of the suitable habitat for E. cava in 2000s [°N] | Northern position of the suitable habitat for E. cava in 2090s [°N] | |
|---|---|---|---|
| RCP2.6 | 0 | 37.5 | 37.5 |
| RCP4.0 | 2.2 | 37.5 | 39.5 |
| RCP6.0 | 3.3 | 37.5 | 40.5 |
| RCP8.5 | 4.5 | 37.5 | 41.5 |
