The relationship between measured fluxdata (non-gap-filled data, where observation data were available) and other environmental variables during the vegetation period and vegetation development within the footprint of the tower during the study period: a monthly mean of NEE and vegetation fraction with fill colors according to the monthly shortwave incoming radiation (n = 36) and b monthly mean of CH4 fluxes and soil temperature (at 10cm) with fill colors according to the monthly mean WTD (n = 34). Error bars denote standard deviation of the mean monthly values. c 2013 digital orthophoto image (source: LAiV) along with the outline of the open water area in 2010 overlaid on the DOP image. d 2021 UAV orthomosaic image (source: GFZ, section 1.4) along with the outline of the open water area in 2010 overlaid on the image showing the vegetation encroachment.
