Figure 1
Proportion of species classified according to the IUCN Red List
assessment under two extremes assumptions about species migration. EX,
extinct; CR, critically endangered; EN, endangered; VU, vulnerable; LR,
lower risk. (Click image to enlarge) |

Figure 2
Estimated percentage of species loss and turnover. Upper extreme, upper
quartile, median, lower quartile, and lower extreme are represented for
each box. (Click image to enlarge) |

Figure 3 Relationships between the percentage of species loss and anomalies of
moisture availability and growing-degree days. The colors correspond to
different climate change scenarios. (Click image to enlarge) |

Figure
4 Regional projections of the residuals from the multiple regression of
species loss against growing-degree days and moisture availability. Red
colors indicate an excess of species loss; gray colors indicate a
deficit. (Click image to enlarge) |
