Fig. 5: Exposure statistics.

From: Oil droplets are severely overlooked in risk assessments

Fig. 5

Fraction of the haddock eggs (y-axis) that experience at least the value indicated at the x-axis. The left panel shows maximum concentrations of dissolved oil (blue) and droplet oil (orange). The right panel shows the accumulated droplet mass (evaluated right before hatch). The left y-axes show the fraction with respect to all released eggs, and the right y-axes show the fraction with respect to only eggs that are exposed to oil. Percentiles and medians are calculated with respect to the exposed eggs, i.e., using the right y-axes. Values on the top x-axes are the median values given by the dashed lines.
