Fig. 6From: Environmental influence on the bottom and near-bottom megafauna communities of the Dogger Bank: a long-term surveyMean surface and bottom temperatures per year and during summer (July 01 to August 31), derived from the combination of ICES CTD data and our own CTD data. The vertical broken lines mark the years where sampling has taken place. The linear slopes show the general trend of the mean temperatures (P values—yearly means: surface 0.13, bottom 0.66; summer means: surface 0.21, bottom 0.03.)Back to article page
