Mode 3 — Climate Analogue Discovery

Kigali — Mode 3 climate analogue discovery

Analogue zones derived from 2 scoring variable(s): bio01, climaticMoistureIndex. Baseline: 20.28 °C mean annual temperature, CMI -0.38. Species discovered from overall analogue mask: 22,741 woody taxa (312 families) from 56,898 total vascular plant species.

2 · Analogue zone maps

Mask polygons are the set of ~0.1° grid cells whose projected bio01 and climaticMoistureIndex values fall within the site’s SSP126–SSP585 envelope for each time period. The overall mask spans all SSPs × all periods (maximum plausible analogue extent).

Polygon count per period:

3 · Climate window

The analogue window is the per-period min/max of the 5-GCM ensemble medians across all four SSPs. Species whose occurrence records fall within these bounds are the discovery candidates.
