Correlation coefficient for Pearson correlation analysis between the geographic metrics and water physic-chemical parameters during the wet (left) and dry (right) seasons. Red and blue correspond to the negative and positive correlation, respectively. Light color represents lower correlations while darker color represents higher correlations. * p<0.05; ** p<0.01.
