Information about the data and the graph
The list was first compiled by Margarita Manterola, and has been extended by Francesca Ciceri, updated in 2015 by AmayaRodrigo and Ana Guerrero, updated in 2021 by UlrikeUhlig. The graphs have been generated by a script available on Salsa initially written by Elena Grandi and rewritten by Ulrike Uhlig, by parsing this page and using matplotlib to plot the data.
