Table 2.

Comparison between the obtained parameters from 1983–1984 and 2006. For each parameter, an F-test was used to compare the regression-line slopes obtained from the 1983–1984- and 2006-datasets (table 1). Because these were not different (rows 1 and 2), the fitted model was altered to include only a single, shared slope for both datasets (rows 3–5; with 95% confidence intervals in parentheses). Per parameter, the y-intercepts from this model were compared (F-test; rows 6 and 7). Based on the difference in y-intercepts, the regression-line slope and the decrease in temperature with elevation (5.5°C km−1) [15], an expected temperature change (ΔT; 2006 re. 1983–1984) was calculated (row 8).
