Fig. 5.2 Simulated effects of afforestation on the annual average temperature (measured in
degrees Celsius) in Jiangxi Province
average precipitation in the northwest part of Jiangxi Province will also increase
by more than 250 mm. However, the expansion of the deciduous broadleaf forests
will make the overall annual average precipitation in the simulation area decrease
by 47 mm under the scenario of DB. By comparison, the drought effects of the
deciduous needleleaf forest expansion under the scenario of DN area is little
slighter than that of under the scenario of DB, it will make the annual average
precipitation decrease by 33 mm in the study area on the whole. What's more, the
spatial pattern of the climatic effects under the scenario of DN is similar with that
under the scenario of DB.
