Fig. 7: Inhibition levels of environmental concentrations of triazine herbicides on phytoplankton primary productivity in typical bay and gulf worldwide.

The box-scatter plots show the inhibition levels. Each point in the scatter plot on the right corresponds to a survey site, which is arranged from left to right in chronological order. Box plot whiskers of the box chart on the left represent the minimum and maximum values, with bounds of the box representing The box chart on the left shows the first quartile, median (marked by yellow line), and third quartile of triazine herbicides on phytoplankton primary productivity at all sites in the corresponding sea area (n = 16, 128, 34, 271, 21, 168, and 22 independent survey sites, from left to right). The solid circle in each sea area represents the median value of the inhibition level at each station in that area, with a larger circle size indicating a larger median value.
