This figures will be improved! ## Fig 1a The idea of this figure is to show how the weighted climate velocities are calculated. First we have the climate velocity metrics for the study area, then we overlap and average weight climate velocity by a species suitability map to the same area. Areas of high suitability (where species is more likely to occur will have higher weight). Here we can see that weighted climate velocities can be very different for two species with different distribution ranges in a given study area.
The idea here is to show how the bioclimatic velocities are calculated. We start with time-series of SDM maps for a given species. This time-series refers to projections to multiple years from the beginning to the end a observed range shift. At each grid cell, the bioclimate velocity is calculated using the same formula for climate velocity (Trend/Gradient). We can see here, for a given grid-cell highlighted in blue, bioclimate velocities vary from species to species.
