Figure 4. Time-series of climatic and biogeochemical variables with box jellyfish beach counts at Waikiki.

Figure 4

Log-transformed, detrended variables are shown, Y-axes are residual values. Graphs A, C, and E represent monthly time-series (three-month average smoothing), while graphs B, D, and F represent annual means. Solid blue lines represent box jellyfish numbers, dashed red lines represent climate and biogeochemical variables, including NPGO (A, B), primary production (C, D), and zooplankton biomass (E, F). Note different scale in the Y-axis of variables between monthly and annual analyses. Error bars were not included in order to enhance visualization. Biogeochemical variables were obtained at Station ALOHA, from the Hawaiian Oceanographic Time-series program (HOT) at http://hahana.soest.hawaii.edu/hot/.
