Time of First Emergence (ToFE) of Day Zero Drought (DZD) conditions and global hotspot regions. (a) Spatial distribution of the decadal ToFE of DZD events across the globe from 1900 to 2100. Color shading indicates the first decade during which DZD becomes statistically attributable to anthropogenic climate change, defined as the first decade in which the Fraction of Attributable Risk is greater than 0.99 (FAR ≥ 0.99). Gray regions indicate grid cells where no DZD event attributable to anthropogenic climate change is projected to emerge before 2100. (b) Circular diagram illustrating the temporal distribution of ToFE by decades. The color scale indicates the percentages of DZD grid cells (land areas) experiencing their ToFE distribution in each decade from 1900 to 2100. It provides a temporal overview of how the ToFE is distributed over time and the trends in DZD emergence.
