Journal ArticleDOI
Annual follow-up of gross diffusive carbon dioxide and methane emissions from a boreal reservoir and two nearby lakes in Québec, Canada
TL;DR: In this article, surface water pCO2 and pCH4 measurements were taken in the boreal zone of Quebec, Canada, from summer 2006 to summer 2008 in Eastmain 1 reservoir and two nearby lakes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Greenhouse gas emissions (CO2, CH4, and N2O) from several perialpine and alpine hydropower reservoirs by diffusion and loss in turbines
TL;DR: In this paper, the first results of greenhouse gas emissions from reservoirs at high elevations in the Alps were investigated, and the results indicate reservoirs from subalpine/alpine regions to be only minor contributors of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere compared to other reservoirs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accounting for GHG net reservoir emissions of hydropower in Ecuador
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a complete environmental performance of two hydropower schemes (dam and run-of-river) located in this country, through the life cycle assessment combined with reservoir GHG emissions approach.

Long-term prediction of greenhouse gas risk to the Chinese hydropower reservoirs
TL;DR: Assessment is required to know the magnitude of CH4 and its effect on regional climate so that mitigation measures could be taken in advance, as well as to predict long-term GHG (CO2 & CH4) risk to the hydropower reservoirs and its associated lifecycle GHG emissions (GHG-LCA).

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.
