Figure 1 in Van Galen et al. (2025): "The PLFA and enzyme activity database contains 12,258 samples from 3,743 locations. The purple colour gradient shows the degree to which climatic space is represented by the samples (scale of 0 to 1, see Technical Validation section). Grey regions do not have sufficient climate data available to evaluate climatic representation. The histogram and donut plots show number of samples (in parentheses) from the PLFA (blue) and enzyme (red) datasets collected in different years, from different continents, from different biomes43, and within different categories of maximum sample depth. Only large segments of donut plots are labelled. Temp. = temperate."
