Figure 1: Green + Blue water use for each basin and each sector (at one point in time)

Storyline: - Dominance of agriculture in water use - Highlighting irrigation + cattle as main consumers (beyond domestic + industry) - Separation of reservoir allocation - Breakdown of natural vegetation contribution vs. ag - Importance of rainfed ag + pasture (volume + %) - try it out



Figure S1: Spatially explicit green and blue water use.

Figure 2: Moisture recycling (and runoff?)

Inside + outside, moisture recycling ratio (idea: for 3 basins together in body of manuscript, 3 basins separately in SI)

Storyline: - Results from Paper 2 aggregated here - Inter-basin connectivity, relationship between basins - Moisture recycling ratio

Table 1: Green + Blue water scarcity, BIER + BEER

Storyline: - Blue water scarcity - magnitude and sources of scarcity - Green water scarcity - new indicator - potential role of neighboring basins

Figure 3: Temporal component (?)

Storyline: Show the effects of extensification/intensification in these processes

Figure 4: Trade component, focused on China, EU and Brazil (soy + beef)

Storyline: - Shared responsibility, risks - Does one consumption center supply affect another?

Table 2: Summary of relationship between consumption centers?
