Table 3 The mean and standard deviation (values inside the brackets) of the median (denoted as MED) and the 95% credible interval (denoted as CI) of the L2SWBM inference for over-lake precipitation (denoted as P), over-lake evaporation (denoted as E), and lateral runoff (denoted as R) over Lake Superior. The mean and standard deviation were calculated for each calendar month.
