Fig. 6

Frequency of mixing-dominated (Mixing) events during summer MHW onsets, relative to the total number of summer events detected locally in each study area of the Red Sea, between 2001 and 2005. Note that the main, local MHW onset driver (maximum positive heat contribution) is calculated relative to the total warm contribution budget of each local MHW onset period. Colours on the main map represent the bathymetric characteristics of the basin.
