Really? An unlabeled map scatterplot? The article copied only one of them from the original paper but the second one is just as useless. Isn't Science supposed to be a prestigious journal? The quality of the data presentation is embarrasing.
- eru 3y agoThe more prestigious the journal, often the more garbage the science they publish. Alas.
- DougMerritt 3y agoCitation please (preferably from a prestigious journal ;) But seriously, why is that, or why do you think so?
- eru 3y agoPart of the problem is that those prestigious journals only want to publish the most exciting science. And, alas, the most exciting science is more likely to be wrong and rubbish. See eg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Publication_bias https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Publication_bias and the whole reproducibility crisis. (Though that doesn't explain why the graphics might be bad, because Nature and Science would still want polished content.)
