From: Assessing cetacean surveys throughout the Mediterranean Sea: a gap analysis in environmental space

Figure 8

(a) Extent of extrapolation (dark blue) versus interpolation (yellow), and (b) proportion of prediction points near available data points in the multivariate environmental space defined by all considered static and dynamic covariates if a model including all static and dynamic covariates calibrated on the available survey data was used for prediction across the Mediterranean Sea. In (b), dark blue/yellow represents areas where predictions would potentially be unreliable/reliable. Results for January, April, July, and October, corresponding to the middle month of solar seasons, are shown. Results for all months are shown in Supplementary Figs S13 and S14. The definition of neighborhood in multivariate environmental space is provided in the Methods.The maps were generated with R (https://www.r-project.org/) (version 3.1.1).
