Temporal variation in ova and oocyte diameters.

Diameters (Ī¼m) of ova (red boxes) and oocytes (gold boxes) from female Diadema setosum from the GOA. Measurements conducted from January 2010 through February 2011. Boxes represent monthly average oocyte diameters; centre black lines show the medians; box limits indicate the 25th and 75th percentiles; the 95% confidence interval of each median is represented by the notches and is defined as Ā±1.58ā€‰Ć—ā€‰IQR/sqrt(n) (with n representing the number of samples as indicated under the boxes); whiskers extend to minimum and maximum values with open circles representing outliers; width of the boxes is proportional to the square root of the sample size.
