Plot of daily values of TMAX (x-axis) vs PNA (y-axis)
Note: to increase scatter, +/- 0.5° is added to obs
  • Large dots - days when both TMAX and PNA were "extreme"
  • Small dots - days when TMAX, PNA, or both were not "extreme"
  • Red horizontal line - threshold for extreme high PNA
  • Blue horizontal line - threshold for extreme low PNA
  • Grey vertical line - mean TMAX for all days
  • Black vertical lines - thresholds for extremes of TMAX
  • Green vertical-to-diagonal line - least squares best-fit regression line for TMAX vs PNA
  • If the amount of variance in TMAX explained by PNA is at least 1%, this r² value is shown in the lower right
