Fig. 3From: Features of the Earth’s seasonal hydroclimate: characterizations and comparisons across the Köppen–Geiger climates and across continentsSide-by-side boxplots of the values of a lag-1 autocorrelation, b autocorrelation summary, c seasonal autocorrelation and d temporal variation per climate division (Kottek et al. 2006) for seasonal temperature, precipitation and river flow. The limits of the vertical axes of the blue rectangles have been set identical to the upper and lower limits of the blue ribbons, thereby allowing comparisons both within and across time series types. The corresponding mean values are presented in Fig. 5Back to article page
