Journal ArticleDOI
Challenges and opportunities for managing aquatic mercury pollution in altered landscapes.
Heileen Hsu-Kim,Chris S. Eckley,Darío Achá,Xinbin Feng,Cynthia C. Gilmour,Sofi Jonsson,Carl P. J. Mitchell +6 more
TL;DR: The objective of this paper is to synthesize the scientific understanding of how Hg cycling in the aquatic environment is influenced by landscape perturbations at the local scale, perturbation that include watershed loadings, deforestation, reservoir and wetland creation, rice production, urbanization, mining and industrial point source pollution, and remediation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrating aquatic and terrestrial components to construct a complete carbon budget for a north temperate lake district
Ishi Buffam,Monica G. Turner,Ankur R. Desai,Paul C. Hanson,James A. Rusak,Noah R. Lottig,Emily H. Stanley,Stephen R. Carpenter +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors constructed a complete regional carbon (C) budget for the Northern Highlands Lake District in northern Wisconsin/ Michigan, a region rich in lakes and wetlands, using a combination of field surveys and tower-based carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) flux measurements, modeling, and published literature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methane emissions from rice paddies natural wetlands, lakes in China: synthesis new estimate
Huai Chen,Qiuan Zhu,Changhui Peng,Changhui Peng,Ning Wu,Ning Wu,Yanfen Wang,Xiuqin Fang,Hong Jiang,Wenhua Xiang,Jie Chang,Xiangwen Deng,Guirui Yu +12 more
TL;DR: A new progress-based model used in conjunction with more observations through model-data fusion approach could help obtain better estimates and insights with regard to CH4 emissions deriving from wetlands and lakes in China.
Journal ArticleDOI
Eutrophication reverses whole-lake carbon budgets
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that lakes undergoing eutrophication can become atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) sinks because of the CO 2 disequilibrium caused by extreme primary production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydropower in the Context of Sustainable Energy Supply: A Review of Technologies and Challenges
TL;DR: The paper has reviewed the world energy scenario and how hydropOWER fits in as the solution to the global sustainable energy challenge and issues of hydropower resource availability, technology, environment and climate change have been also discussed.

Book
Biogeochemistry : An Analysis of Global Change
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.
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,P. G. Slater +1 more
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.
Book
Water in crisis: a guide to the world's fresh water resources
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.
