From Ice Age to Present: Tree Cover Dynamics in REVEALS and MPI-ESM (Video)

How has Earth’s tree cover changed since the Last Glacial Maximum? This video contrasts REVEALS reconstructions with MPI-ESM model simulations, offering two perspectives on 20,000 years of environmental change. Values are shown as cover fractions per grid cell, ranging from 0 (no trees) to 1 (complete tree cover).

自末次盛冰期（Last Glacial Maximum）以来，地球的树木覆盖范围经历了怎样的变化？本视频将REVEALS重建结果与MPI-ESM模型模拟结果进行对比，为2万年以来的环境变化提供两种研究视角。数据以单个网格单元的树木覆盖占比形式展示，取值范围为0（无树木覆盖）至1（完全树木覆盖）。
