Fig. 2: Annual frequency and trend of AHW and MHW events by concurrence type.

From: Mediterranean marine heatwaves intensify in the presence of concurrent atmospheric heatwaves

Fig. 2

Annual number of AHW (May–September) and MHW (all year) events by concurrency type for the Mediterranean and its different subregions (ASEA = Adriatic Sea, WMED = Western Mediterranean, and ESEA = Eastern Mediterranean). Points size denotes event duration. Concurrent events show an increase for AHWs while MHW concurrent events also increased their frequency and duration.
