Projected change in habitat suitability

Donut plots illustrate the change in proportion of habitats assigned as low (dark blue), medium (light blue), or high (yellow) habitat suitability through time from 2005 (inner ring) to 2090 (outer ring). Maps visualize the change in predicted habitat suitability from 2005 to 2090 for each CBW reach. The bivariate color palette shows the predicted 2005 and 2090 habitat suitability on the x and y palette axes, respectively. Colors in the lower triangle of the palette indicate decreasing habitat suitability (e.g., high 2005 suitability to low 2090 suitability) whereas colors in the upper triangle indicate increasing suitability (e.g., low 2005 to high 2090 suitability). Colors on the diagonal of the matrix indicate no predicted change in habitat suitability between the time periods (e.g., low suitability in 2005 and 2090). Predictions are shown for the T50P50B2 climate and land-use/land-cover scenario.
