• Key Words:Drought and hot‐related extremes often coincide or follow one another, known as compound drought‐hot extremes (CDHEs), adversely affecting various vegetation processes. Thus, investigating the response relationship between vegetation dynamics and CDHEs is critical for maintaining the sustainable development of ecosystems under the background of climate warming. High ecosystem vulnerability is detected in central and southern regions of North America, eastern and southern regions of South America, Southern Africa, northern and western Europe, and northern and eastern Australia. Climatic factors (precipitation, arid index, temperature, and radiation) dominate the vulnerability of all vegetation types. The drier the climate, the higher will be the vulnerability of vegetation to CDHEs. Furthermore, biodiversity and biomass are key biotic factors influencing the vulnerability. The results provide us with essential insights for managing and adapting terrestrial ecosystems against climate change and are of interest to a wide range of audiences, including but not limited to ecologists, hydrologists, and climatologists.
