Fig. 3: Influences of different factors on DOC and POC variations.
From: Substantial increase of organic carbon storage in Chinese lakes

The main driving factors for the annual changes of (a) DOC and (b) POC concentrations during 1984–2023. The main driving factors indicate those which have the largest contributions. The figures show the main factors with the largest mean contributions for lakes in the 1.0° grids. c The driving processes of the main factors for the changes in DOC and POC. DOC Conc. DOC concentration. POC Conc. POC concentration. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
