Journal ArticleDOI
GHG emissions from hydroelectric reservoirs in tropical and equatorial regions: Review of 20 years of CH4 emission measurements
M. Demarty,J. Bastien +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the limited scientific information available and concluded that, at this time, no global position can be taken regarding the importance and extent of GHG emissions in warm latitudes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial and temporal patterns of greenhouse gas emissions from Three Gorges Reservoir of China
Yujin Zhao,Bingfang Wu,Yuan Zeng +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report monthly measurements for one year of the fluxes of these gases at multiple sites within the TGR region, including three major tributaries, six mainstream sites, two downstream sites and one upstream site.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that current understanding of physical and biogeochemical processes in freshwater systems is sufficient to begin to construct such models, and a path forward is proposed, arguing that the largest impediment to fully representing lakes in the climate system lies in the handling of lakes that are too small to be explicitly resolved by the climate model, and that make up the majority of the lake covered area at the resolutions currently used by global and regional climate models.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon dioxide emission from surface water in cascade reservoirs-river system on the Maotiao River, southwest of China
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated four subtropical reservoirs and their related reaches, draining on karstic area in southwest of China, to understand their CO 2 emission, with monthly sampling strategy from July 2007 to June 2008.
Journal ArticleDOI
Translocation of soil organic matter following reservoir impoundment in boreal systems: Implications for in situ productivity
TL;DR: This article studied sedimentary environments in three natural lakes that existed prior to impoundment and that have been incorporated in the larger lentic system of a 70-yr-old boreal reservoir in Quebec.

Climate Change 1995: The Science of Climate Change
TL;DR: The most comprehensive and up-to-date assessment available for scientific understanding of human influences on the past present and future climate is "Climate Change 1995: The Science of Climate Change" as mentioned in this paper.
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.
