Short summary
Common global land cover and climate classifications are based on vegetation–climatic characteristics derived from observational data, ignoring the interaction between the local climate and biome. Here, we model the interplay between vegetation and local climate by discovering spatial relationships among different locations. The resulting global hydro-climatic biomes correspond to regions of coherent climate–vegetation interactions that agree well with traditional global land cover maps.
