| Abstract | General comments: The authors investigate atmospheric CO2 uptake in fjord systems and shelf areas affected by glacial meltwater. They present and analyse a unique and extensive dataset from Godthåbsfjord, Greenland including monthly observations at three dedicated stations in the fjord, in addition to seasonal transects across the whole fjord and shelf system. Their main finding is that glacier meltwater input and net community production drive a yearround strong (when normalized to area) CO2 uptake in the fjord. The authors also construct and use a simplified biogeochemical model to resolve the importance of the different driving processes of the CO2 uptake in the fjord. |
