Spatiotemporal variations and hydrothermal controls in the sensitivity of vegetation productivity and ecosystem respiration to precipitation across terrestrial biomes

Key Points

• Vegetation productivity and ecosystem respiration are highly sensitive to precipitation changes.
• The analysis shows a significant variability linked to hydrothermal conditions in different biomes.
• Assessment using data across terrestrial ecosystems helps understand how climate affects productivity and respiration.
• This highlights the need for tailored management strategies to address ecosystem responses to climate variability.
