The upper plot shows the relative difference of carbon fluxes [%] with respect to LULC transition and carbon flux attribution method. The carbon fluxes of method 1 are set to 0. The lower plot shows the total absolute carbon fluxes [Mg C] calculated with carbon flux attribution method 1 with respect to LULC transition and LULCC method.](https://heigit.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/ed501d68-7952-4263-a23e-a5f8a81fa7a4.png)
