Abstrakt: This study emphasises the complexity of carbon dioxide (CO2) emission dynamics by conducting a wetland case study along the Dambovita River. Our evaluation highlights the importance of considering spatial variability, meteorological parameters and water quality parameters. The variations in CO2 emissions have been monitored using two complementary methods: a closed static chamber and a closed dynamic chamber. The closed dynamic chamber method has the highest level of confidence. The statistical results of correlations facilitated the validation of the closed static chamber method and its independent use in wetland ecosystems. Also, our findings revealed distinct patterns in emissions across locations that are influenced by parameters such as pH, redox potential (ORP), chlorophyll, dissolved oxygen concentration (DO), and temperature for the water–atmosphere interface. These results contribute to the understanding of the carbon cycle in wetlands and contribute to the improvement of greenhouse gas (GHG) reporting by obtaining data with a high level of confidence, regarding the role of wetland ecosystems in the carbon cycle.
