Global spatial distribution of natural riverine silica inputs to the coastal zone

Hans H. Dürr, +7 more
- 07 Mar 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the spatial distribution of riverine silica fluxes under natural conditions, i.e. without human influence, to ~140 segments of the global coastal zone is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global perturbation of organic carbon cycling by river damming.

Taylor Maavara, +4 more
- 17 May 2017 - 
TL;DR: For the period 1970–2030, global carbon mineralization in reservoirs exceeds carbon fixation (P

Assessing the influence of Environmental Impact Assessments on science and policy: an analysis of the Three Gorges Project.

Desiree Tullos
- 01 Jul 2009 - 
TL;DR: An analysis of the EIA process for the Three Gorges Project in China is presented, with recommendations about those institutional changes needed to improve the feedback between the science and policy, and ultimately the environmental sustainability, of large dams.
Journal ArticleDOI

Methane Emissions from Pantanal, South America, during the Low Water Season : Toward More Comprehensive Sampling

David Bastviken, +6 more
- 22 Jun 2010 - 
TL;DR: Diel cycling of emission rates was observed and therefore 24-h long measurements are recommended rather than short-term measurements not accounting for the full diel cycle as this study identified diverse habitats within lakes having widely different flux rates.

CO2 emissions from a tropical hydroelectric reservoir (Balbina, Brazil)

Alexandre Kemenes, +3 more
- 01 Sep 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors estimate the emissions of CO2 from the Balbina dam in the central Brazilian Amazon using an inundation model derived from a bathymetric map and daily stage readings.

Biogeochemistry : An Analysis of Global Change

William H. Schlesinger
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a perspective of the global cycle of nitrogen and phosphorous, the global water cycle, and the global sulfur cycle from a global point of view.
Journal ArticleDOI

Northern Peatlands: Role in the Carbon Cycle and Probable Responses to Climatic Warming.

Eville Gorham
- 01 May 1991 - 
TL;DR: Satellite-monitoring of the abundance of open water in the peatlands of the West Siberian Plain and the Hudson/James Bay Lowland is suggested as a likely method of detecting early effects of climatic warming upon boreal and subarctic peatland environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Flux of Gases across the Air-Sea Interface

Peter S. Liss, +1 more
- 01 Jan 1974 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the use of a two-layer model to estimate the flux of various gases across the air-sea interface has been described, and the model has been used to estimate flux of different gases across different regions of the world.

Water in crisis: a guide to the world's fresh water resources

Peter H. Gleick
TL;DR: In this article, an introduction to global fresh water issues is presented. But the authors focus on water quality and health, not just water quality, and do not address the issues of water management and economic development.
