Fig. 3.

Estimated parameter effects of the z-scored environmental covariates on the annual relative biomasses in the most parsimonious models (black). Competing models are shown in gray. The standardized effects are comparable between covariates and taxa and directly proportional to their impact in practice on taxon-specific biomasses. The error bars indicate 95% CI. Covariates: temp = temperature, sal = salinity, strat = stratification index, DIN = dissolved inorganic nitrogen, DIP = dissolved inorganic phosphorous, ice = number of days with ice cover. All models also include a partial temporal trend (year).
