Contours show % area with statistically significant correlations (r > 0.602, p<0.05; 9 degrees of freedom, two-tailed test) over a range of start dates and averaging periods. The diamond symbols identify the averaging coordinates for seasonal maxima. No results were computed for averaging period and start date pairs lying above the diagonal line because averaging periods end after 31 August of survey years.
