Table 1. Linear-regression analysis of data points from different time slices using a sliding window with a width of four orders of magnitude, or with a shrinking window for the oldest calibrations.

Significant regression results (p ≤ 0.05) are shown in bold. A more detailed version of this table is available as Table S4.
