Figure 4: Patterns of global lake distribution.
From: Estimating the volume and age of water stored in global lakes using a geo-statistical approach
(a) Lake area density (limnicity) calculated as percent area covered by lakes within a 25 km radius. (b) Average depth of all lakes within a 25 km radius, weighted by their partial area within that radius. Both maps include reservoirs from the Global Reservoir and Dam (GRanD) database28.
