Sea-surface temperature characteristics of selected shellfish representative tetrodotoxin monitoring sites in the United Kingdom

Sea-surface temperature characteristics of selected shellfish representative tetrodotoxin (TTX) monitoring sites in the United Kigndom where TTX-positive or TTX-negative bivalves were recovered in 2016. Box and whisker plots showing median (horizontal line), mean (diamond) and 1st and 3rd quartiles for satellite-derived sea surface temperature (SST) from 2016, based on (A) daily mean SST and (B) "SST difference" data sets. "SST difference" values were determined by subtracting the lowest daily mean SST value from the daily mean SST values at each site. (Source: Dhanji-Rapkova M, Teixeira Alves M, Triñanes JA, et al.
