Detailed Description

(A). Algal bloom magnitude in Florida lakes in 2011 before normalization and (B) after normalization by lake surface area. Area-normalized magnitude (km−2) of selected lakes provided as part of bar labels in parenthesis. Bar height and color are proportional to annual bloom magnitude (in A) and annual area-normalized magnitude (in B). The width of the bars is proportional to the lake surface area. Note that the color bars are log-scaled.
