a–d, Histograms of the resolution (a), extent (b), interval (c) and duration (d) of observations collected from the surveyed ecological studies. Bars represent the average percentages for each bin realized after 1,000 perturbed resamples, while the grey error bars indicate 95% confidence intervals. The bar widths in c and d indicate differences in scale between the x axis labels. The grey vertical line in d indicates that the majority (>95%) of observations of ≤1 day duration were temporally unreplicated. kyr, thousand years.
