Fig. 4: Summary budget of N2O fluxes and indication of N2O undersaturation in northern Atlantic waters during research cruise JR271.

a Mean (± 1 s.d.) rates of production, consumption & fluxes of N2O observed for stations E01 to E05 inclusive. Gross production assumes that consumption processes are constant throughout, which the experimental design did not resolve. b Mean N2O saturation (red line) ± 1 s.d. (dashed lines) for 13 stations north of 58.44°N during the same cruise. Grey line represents N2O saturation at the North Sea station E01 (56.16°N).
