Figure 5

Digital elevation model of the study plot in Bugac, Hungary (coordinates refer to the Uniform National Projection System (m)) with the sampling positions in the 80 × 60 m grid coloured according to their meanSOC from C1 to C5. Green square represents the position of the eddy covariance station. Marginal plots in grey show the mean surface elevation by x and y coordinates. Notice that the largest altitudinal difference was no more than ~ 1.5 m within the study plot.
