Fluxes of greenhouse gases at two different aquaculture ponds in the coastal zone of southeastern China
TLDR
This study investigated the magnitude of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide fluxes from two coastal aquaculture ponds during 2011 and 2012 in the Shanyutan wetland of the Min River estuary, southeastern China, and determined the factors that may regulate GHG fluxes.About:

Status of wetlands in China: A review of extent, degradation, issues and recommendations for improvement
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper reviewed the current status of wetland resources and the impact factors of degradation were discussed, and some key recommendations for improving wetland protection and management for China were given, including: improve special laws and regulations regarding wetlands, establish specialized management agencies; strengthen wetlands research and monitoring; and enhance public wetland conservation awareness.

Dynamics of dissolved nutrients in the aquaculture shrimp ponds of the Min River estuary, China: Concentrations, fluxes and environmental loads.
TL;DR: Investigation of nutrient cycling in three intensive shrimp ponds with zero water exchange demonstrated the importance of aquaculture pond effluent as a major contributor of water pollution in the coastal areas of China, and called for actions to properly treat these effluents in alleviating the eutrophication problem in the Chinese coastal zones.

TL;DR: A global meta-analysis with a database of 209 sites to examine the effects of LULCC types of constructed wetlands, croplands, aquaculture ponds, drained wetlands, and pastures on the variability in CO2, CH4 and N2 O emissions from the natural coastal wetlands, riparian wetlands and peatlands highlights the significant role of LulCC in increasing comprehensive GHG emissions from global natural wetlands.

Fluxes of carbon dioxide and methane across the water–atmosphere interface of aquaculture shrimp ponds in two subtropical estuaries: The effect of temperature, substrate, salinity and nitrate
TL;DR: The results demonstrate the importance of aquaculture ponds as a major GHG source and a contributor to climate warming in the subtropical estuarine regions of China, and call for effective regulation of GHG emissions from these ponds for climate mitigation in future.
Journal ArticleDOI
Greenhouse gases emission from the sewage draining rivers.
TL;DR: The results showed that the concentration and fluxes of CO2, CH4 and N2O were seasonally variable and the three GHGs emission fluxes in two sewage draining rivers of Tianjin were clearly higher than those of other rivers (natural rivers) and the spatial variation of CH4 was more obvious than the others.

Freshwater Methane Emissions Offset the Continental Carbon Sink
TL;DR: The continental GHG sink may be considerably overestimated, and freshwaters need to be recognized as important in the global carbon cycle.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that carbon dioxide discharged to the oceans is only a fraction of that entering rivers from terrestrial ecosystems via soil respiration, leaching, chemical weathering, and physical erosion.
