Fig. 3: Relationship between Rs, Rh, Ra, and atmospheric CO2 increment.

a Interannual variation of Rs and atmospheric CO2 increment; (b) Scatter plot with fitted line of Rs and atmospheric CO2 increment; (c) Interannual variation of Rh and atmospheric CO2 increment; (d) Scatter plot with fitted line of Rh and atmospheric CO2 increment. e Interannual variation of Ra and atmospheric CO2 increment; (f) Scatter plot with fitted line of Ra and atmospheric CO2 increment. Anomaly calculations were performed on Rs, Rh, and atmospheric CO2 increment to eliminate differences in magnitude.
