Fig. 2: Examples of integrative carbon budgets across different landscape types.

From: Integrating terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems to constrain estimates of land-atmosphere carbon exchange

Fig. 2

The arrows’ width shows the relative magnitude of carbon flux and is relative within, but not among each case study. a North Temperate Lakes LTER site36; b Ombrotrophic peatland catchment in southern Scotland97; c Sugarcane plantation in Australia38. ∆CIW in the peatland example (panel b) was not measured and assumed negligible. Units are Gg C yr−1 in panel a, and g C m−2 yr−1 in panels b and c. NEE: Net Ecosystem Exchange, ∆C: ecosystem carbon accumulation (or loss).
