Abstract
To summarize, an article had to meet the following criteria for inclusion: (i) include a clear statement that the study objectives were to investigate the potential effects of climate, (ii) report on original data analyses (i.e. reviews were not included), (iii) include analyses on quantitative relationships between a climate variable and a response variable (usually conducted by correlation), and (iv) provide explicit comparisons of changes in response variables in relation to climate through time. In the case of studies with duplicate datasets and updated analyses, we selected only one study with the longest time series, typically the most recent publication. An observation was defined as a biological response variable (demographic parameter, phenology, distribution, behaviour, diet, condition or physiological variable) and a climatic variable (e.g. Sea Surface Temperature (SST) but also including global indices such as Southern Annular Mode or Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), see detailed protocol in Supporting Information sections 4 & 5).
