Fig. 2: STR frequencies and wind-speed anomalies during MHW onset.
From: Mediterranean summer marine heatwaves triggered by weaker winds under subtropical ridges

a–f, Composites of anomalies of STR (a–c) and blocking (d–f) frequency indices, derived from ERA5 z500 data, for the WMed (a,d), CMed (b,e) and EMed (c,f) clusters (Fig. 1a). Black points denote statistically significant anomalies (Methods). The anomalies are calculated against the full study period (1982–2022).
