Extended Data Fig. 4: Validation of simulated LHW metrics from 2000 to 2020.
From: Disproportionate impact of atmospheric heat events on lake surface water temperature increases

a-b The mean absolute errors (MAEs) between LHW cumulative intensity calculated from Lakes_cci and modelled LSWT. c-d MAEs between LHW duration calculated from Lakes_cci and modelled LSWT. All the metrics were averaged over 2000–2020. In b and d, each point represents a lake; the density of data is the normalized kernel density and is represented by the colour of points.
