Fig. 5: Family-level correlations among the probabilities of excretion of five carbonate polymorphs by reef fishes.

Estimates are posterior medians and 95% credible intervals of correlation coefficients derived from 6,000 posterior draws of a Bayesian multivariate hurdle-lognormal model after controlling for temperature and relative intestinal length (Eq. 9). LMC, low-magnesium calcite; HMC, high-magnesium calcite; MHC, monohydrocalcite; ACMC, amorphous calcium magnesium carbonate. Data underlying the figures are available in the Zenodo repository (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7530455)93.
