The metabolism of the terrestrial biosphere looks like nature’s heartbeat when seen through the lens of a gridded cartogram projection.
When and where nature ecosystems are most productive depends a lot on the time of the year. The animation of productivity shows how the changing seasons determine the variability of energy production throughout the year. Distribution of landmasses lead to the tropics being over-proportionally present in this image, especially in the northern hemisphere’s winter.
