Evaluating the greenness of hydroelectric projects of Northeast India: a study with special reference to the Tipaimukh project
TL;DR: In this paper, a study was conducted to determine greenness of some of the HEPs of Northeast India in terms of emission of GHGs, and eligibility of the projects for carbon emission reduction credits.
The stimulation of methylmercury production by decomposition of flooded birch leaves and jack pine
TL;DR: The link between methylmercury (MeHg) production and decomposition of flooded organic matter was examined using an enclosure experiment using six plastic enclosures were filled with lake water containing low concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (146 ymol L1) and MeHg (002 ng L-1), anchored in a lake at the Experimental Lakes Area, northwestern Ontario as discussed by the authors.
Dissertation
Assessing the carbon dynamics in natural and human-perturbed boreal aquatic systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the terrestrial organic matter (OM) exports from land to aquatic systems, followed by its degradation and contribution to the surface freshwaters GHG concentrations were evaluated and showed that the increase in terrestrial dissolved organic carbon and total nitrogen concentrations positively influenced bacterial OM degradation, which drove CO 2 production.

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.

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.
