Fig. 1: Biodiversity and variability of public urban squares in Munich.
From: Urban biodiversity is affected by human-designed features of public squares

Each stacked bar represents 1 of 103 public squares. Squares that are sorted by their total species richness and composed of six taxa are shown in individual colors (left, y axis). The blue and green lines are LOESS (locally estimated scatterplot smoothing) curves for multidiversity (summed, scaled richness of all taxonomic groups; right, y axis) and the proportion of green (right, y axis) with its 95% confidence interval (light-shaded areas). Images of squares highlight the variability in square features. Images of squares, from left to right, include Marienplatz, Hans-Mielich-Platz, Schäringerplatz, Johannisplatz and Pfrontener Platz, and highlight the variability in square features. Square images were taken by Antonia Haberer, 2024.
