  1. Statistically significant (P < 0.05) coefficients of the ordered logistic regression predict depth levels. Coefficients are the log odds of low versus medium depth or medium versus high depth when a given variable exists. s.e.m., standard error of the mean. Studies that mention Small Island States, for instance, have a 3.7 (exp(1.3) = 3.7) times higher likelihood of being associated with higher depth levels than studies that do not mention Small Island States. See Supplementary Table 5 for the full list of results.
