“…With increasing gap numbers or gap duration it becomes more likely that gap‐filling will be used over periods where soil conditions and chemistry, and thus emission rates, may change—adding to uncertainty in emission estimates. Beyond the already‐mentioned challenge of underestimating emissions due to missing peak emission events, sampling strategies that do not sample outside of the growing season present issues, as they may be difficult to extrapolate to an annual value or accurate EF (Scheer et al., 2017; Wagner‐Riddle et al., 2017). Although some studies have examined the influence of sampling frequency from chamber methods on reported annual emissions (Barton et al., 2015; Mishurov & Kiely, 2011; Savage, Phillips, & Davidson, 2014), research into determining and testing gap‐filling methods has been limited (Bigaignon, Fieuzal, Delon, & Tallec, 2020; Cowan et al., 2019; De Rosa et al., 2018; Taki, Wagner‐Riddle, Parkin, Gordon, & VanderZaag, 2018; Webb et al., 2019).…”
