Extended Data Fig. 4: Visualization of the simulated patterns of epigenetic ageing.
From: Hibernation slows epigenetic ageing in yellow-bellied marmots

We simulated two traits: a linear trait (first row) that increases linearly with age independently of the season; and a seasonal trait (second row) that increases during the active season but not during the hibernation. For each trait we show the raw simulated data, the prediction from the GAMM fitted to the simulated data, and the predictions of the partial effects of chronological age and season from the model.
