Figure 6

Correlation matrix of environmental variables. This matrix was calculated using the Pearson coefficient; the larger and darker the circle, the higher the correlation between the two environmental variables; variables are considered correlated for values below − 0.5 and above 0.5. CanArea: surface of canyons; T: temperature, GrT: gradients of temperature; EKE: eddy kinetic energy; m: mean; sd: standard deviation; surf: surface; 0–200: 0–200 m; 200–600: 200–600 m; 600–2000: 600-2000 m.
