Figure 4
Variability of start (dSIP – A) and end (dEIP – B) dates of ice phenomena occurrence, as well as start (dSIC – C) and end (dEIC – D) dates of ice cover appearance on the Ner river at Dabie water gauge, 1951–2017. Red lines show trends. Trend equations given in boxes; R2 – coefficients of determination; [year no.] – consecutive number of year from beginning of data series (1951 is no. 1); α – significance level of trend equations; Mann–Kendall test was used.

Figure 7
Double-mass curves of cumulated duration of ice phenomena (DIPcum) and cumulated duration of ice cover (DICcum) on the Ner river at Dabie water gauge versus cumulated volume of water uptake by Lodz city agglomeration (Vucum), 1951–2017. Red lines are aligned cumulations; arrows indicate years of significant disruption of homogeneity.
