“…This broad range can be explained by the influence of marine aerosols (Ceburnis et al, 2016), different anthropogenic sources (e.g., Widory et al, 2004) as well as different distributions of C 3 and C 4 plants (Martinelli et al, 2002), resulting in different δ 13 C values in the Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere (Cachier, 1989). The δ 13 C values at the Košetice site fall within the range common to other European sites: for example, a rural background site in Vavihill (southern Sweden, range −26.7 ‰ to −25.6 ‰, Martinsson et al, 2017), urban Wrocław (Poland, range −27.6 ‰ to −25.3 ‰, Górka et al, 2014), different sites (urban, coastal, forest) in Lithuania (eastern Europe, Masalaite et al, 2015Masalaite et al, , 2017, as well as urban Zurich (Switzerland, Fisseha et al, 2009a).…”
