Figures for an article

Figures for an article

Assets for an overview figure on a scientific article. Like is often the case, the article treats data at different scales, in these case, measurements on Scots pine.

PNAS article, Lukas Kohl et al 2023 “Radiation and temperature drive diurnal variation of aerobic methane emissions from Scots pine canopy“, published DOI number 10.1073/pnas.2308516120 and accessible at: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2308516120 


This is a typical task of editing and styling a figure from a hand-sketch provided by the scientist, who already has a defined idea of what they want.

In addition, I advised to extend the color-code used in the table to the rest of the graphs in the paper so that the measurement location behind the numbers can be recognised faster. They used the palette I proposed, similar to “paired” in RColorBrewer.

Other stylistic advices, like removing strokes, or applying transparencies and overlays did not reach the final versions. Oh, how I would have enjoyed producing those graphs as well!
