Extended Data Fig. 2

The magnitude of the effect was calculated by multiplying the predictive skill (rho) by the prevalence of the focal causal link over time and was corrected for seasonality (Methods). Diamonds represent averages over time within lakes (only lakes with significant effects are displayed.); boxes’ lower and upper hinges (bounds) correspond to the first and third quantiles (the 25th and 75th percentiles) across all lakes; while black bars represent the median (50th percentile). The upper whisker (max) extends from the hinge to the largest value no further than 1.5 the distance between the first and third quartile. The lower whisker (min) extends from the hinge to the smallest value at most 1.5 the distance between the first and third quartile of the hinge. Data beyond the end of the whiskers are outliers.
