Extended Data Fig. 2: Climate sensitivity of the site tree-ring δ18O chronologies in two independent time periods.
From: Recent human-induced atmospheric drying across Europe unprecedented in the last 400 years

Periods cover 1920-1960 and 1961-2000; shorter for those records that end in 1994, 1996 and 1998, (see Extended Data Table 1). Colours indicate Pearson’s correlation coefficients calculated between each of the 45 site δ18O chronologies of the network and the closest gridpoints of VPD, maximum temperature (Tmax), precipitation sums and SPEI for each individual month from March of the year before to October of the actual year of tree-ring formation. For VPD and Tmax red colours indicate positive correlations, for PPT and SPEI red colours indicate negative correlations. Order of sites from North to South corresponds to the order in Extended Data Table 1.
