Line Plot from Scientific Research

Glacier runoff relative to 2000-2050 and respective precipitation relative to 2000-2019 (both from the three driest months in the melt season and 51-year averaged). For each basin, we give the glaciated area and the number of years with estimated trough water with the maximum difference (max). We give the driest melt months in Supplementary Fig. 8. We only show here three scenarios to allow for a better comparison. The same illustration for only the melt components is in Supplementary Fig. 6. The map shows the outlines of the seven selected basins. All basins have an aridity index <2 (according to ref. 2 ) and are initially above 0.9% glaciated. The projected annual glacier runoff of all 60 glaciated basins is in Supplementary Figs. 3 - 5. Map from Natural Earth (https://www.naturalearthdata.com/).
