Table 3 Correlation analysis of pCO2/fCO2 with water quality parameters in the studied lakes. * and ** denote significant correlations at the 0.05 and 0.01 levels (two–tailed test), respectively. Twater, water temperature; EC, electrical conductivity; TPC, transparency; FNU, turbidity; DO, dissolved oxygen; SR, solar radiation.
