Fig3. Bar plots show the relative contribution of each one of
the eight climate change metrics in predicting local species loss across
Europe: a) Milvus milvus ; b) Merops apiaster; and
c) Cettia cetti . The X-axis shows the mean decrease in accuracy
and measures how variables contribute to the model. The higher the value
of mean decrease accuracy, the higher the importance of the variable in
the model. The climate change metrics are uses are as follows:
ExtremEvents = Changes in probability of local extremes; TrendPrec =
Trend in precipitation; TrendTemp = Trend in temperature; StLocA =
Standardized Local Anomalies; NovelClimate = Novel Climates; Velocity =
Distant-based Velocity of Climate Change; Temp.Spring & Prec.Spring =
Monthly climate data.
