Extended Data Figure 3: Uncertainty map of potential biomass recovery of Neotropical secondary forests.

The uncertainty is based on the 95% confidence interval of the mean predicted AGB after 20 years (see Fig. 3 and Methods). It is expressed as a percentage of the predicted AGB: 100 × (0.5 × 95% confidence interval of the mean)/predicted AGB. In general the uncertainty is low: 80.32% of the mapped area has an uncertainty less than 20%, and 10.2% of the mapped area has an uncertainty between 20% and 30%. Because it is a relative uncertainty, it is highest in the driest areas, which have a low predicted biomass.
