Fig. 3. Tundra greenness trends and correlations with summer air temperatures summarized by Arctic zone.
Left panels show the percent of sites in the Arctic and each zone that exhibited a positive trend [green], a negative trend [brown], or no trend [gray] in Landsat NDVImax from 1985 to 2016 (a) and 2000 to 2016 (c). Right panels show the percent of sites that exhibited a positive correlation [green], a negative correlation [brown], or no correlation [gray] between annual NDVImax and the summer warming index (SWI) from 1985 to 2016 (b) and 2000 to 2016 (d). In all panels, dark and light shades denote significance levels of trends or correlations [dark shades: α = 0.05; light shades: α = 0.10). The sample size is provided above each bar.
