Fig. 2: Regional lake volume (2020) and changes (1990–2020).
From: Evolving resource potential of glacial lakes with ongoing deglaciation
a, Regional lake volumes and their global share in 2020. Bubble size (median in blue with an orange ring indicating the 68% HDI) is scaled to the regional lake volume for 18 RGI regions (semi-transparent polygons). Labels and bubble fill show the regional median share of the global volume along with the lower and upper margins of the 68% HDI. b, Percentage change in lake volume between 1990 and 2020. Bubble size is scaled to the median volume change, while bubble fill shows the proportion of positive posterior change. A posterior mass >50% (<50%) suggests higher credibility for an increase (decrease) in lake volume.
