Extended Data Fig. 6: Climate elasticity models for 40 river basins where SSC is sensitive (P < 0.05) to change in precipitation.
From: Changes in global fluvial sediment concentrations and fluxes between 1985 and 2020
dSSC/SSC and dR/R represent the relative changes in annual SSC and the rainfall erosivity factor over a river basin, compared to their long-term mean values. The linear regression coefficient, namely the climate elasticity (e), represents the proportional SSC increase in response to a 1% increase in rainfall erosivity. 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.
