a, b Number of lakes where each meteorological factor (LR: long-wave radiation, SR: short-wave radiation, LH: latent-heat flux, SH: sensible-heat flux, RA: rainfall, PR: pressure, WS: wind speed) is the primary contributor to CHI and CHIP heatwave differences along with mean and standard deviation of the maximum contributions. c, d Annual average differences in wind speed (units: m s-1) before and during AHWs and LHWs, respectively.
