Extended Data Fig. 7: Sensitivity of SSC to temperature change in the high latitudes and the Tibetan Plateau indicated by climate elasticity models.
From: Changes in global fluvial sediment concentrations and fluxes between 1985 and 2020
dSSC/SSC and dT represent the changes in annual SSC and annual mean air temperature, compared to their long-term mean values (see Methods). The linear regression coefficient, namely the climate elasticity (e), represents the percentage change of SSC in response to an increase in air temperature by 1 °C. The gray-shaded area denotes the 95% confidence interval of the best-fit line. The locations of the river basins are shown in Fig. 3b.
