Transition function (an asymmetric sigmoid function) was applied to the temperature data (r2 = 0.266, F(4, 199) = 18.01, P < 0.001). The transition centre, denoted by the dotted vertical line in the figure = 1998.5 and transition width = 5.3 years. This means that most of the increase in temperature sum took place between 1996 and 2001
