Fig. 2: Temporal dynamics of carbon dioxide (CO2) fluxes.
From: Impact of plant succession on greenhouse gas fluxes during the transition of a flooded fen peatland

Temporal dynamics of measured (blue dots) and modeled (dashed line) weekly CO2 fluxes (CO2-C g m−2 w−1) for the four chamber areas (AC1, AC2, AC3, and AC4) during the period 2014–2018. The gray area around the modeled values indicates the estimated errors from the gap-filling model. Cumulative modeled net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE; secondary axis) is shown as a solid blue line. Successional stages reflecting changes in dominant vegetation cover are given in the figure header: 1-open water, 2-initial recolonization by emergent macrophytes, 3-establishment of a stable emergent macrophyte community.
