Journal ArticleDOI
Methane stocks in tropical hydropower reservoirs as a potential energy source
F. M. Ramos,Luís Antônio Waack Bambace,I. B. T. Lima,Reinaldo R. Rosa,E. A. Mazzi,Philip M. Fearnside +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the use of low-cost, innovative mitigation and recovery strategies is able not only to reduce these emissions, but also to transform existing biogenic methane stocks into a renewable energy source.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon and oxygen fluxes from a small pond to the atmosphere: Temporal variability and the CO2/O2 imbalance
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured over 250 d of dissolved oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations on the 0.5 h timescale in a small Connecticut pond and found that the minimum bacterial production of CO2 in the pond was 100 and 81mmol CO2 m−2 d−1 for 2002 and 2003 (same order as the net CO2 flux from the pond), indicating the importance of the bacterial processes in pond carbon dynamics.

Greenhouse gas emissions from stabilization ponds in subtropical climate
Iván Y. Hernández-Paniagua,Rocio Ramirez-Vargas,M.S. Ramos-Gomez,Luc Dendooven,Francisco Javier Avelar-González,Frederic Thalasso +5 more
TL;DR: It has been concluded that the WSP system studied emits at least three times more GHG than aerobic activated sludge systems and that the surface loading rate is the most important design parameter for CH4 emissions.

Extreme drought boosts CO2 and CH4 emissions from reservoir drawdown areas
Sarian Kosten,Sanne van den Berg,Sanne van den Berg,Raquel Mendonça,Raquel Mendonça,José R. Paranaíba,Fábio Roland,Sebastian Sobek,Jamon Van Den Hoek,Nathan Barros +9 more
TL;DR: Although previous studies suggest that greenhouse gas emissions from reservoir sediment exposed to the atmosphere during drought may be substantial, this process has not been rigorously quantitatively quantified by as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Preliminary report on methane emissions from the Three Gorges Reservoir in the summer drainage period
Fei Lu,Long Yang,Xiaoke Wang,Xiaonan Duan,Yujing Mu,Wenzhi Song,Feixiang Zheng,Junfeng Niu,Lei Tong,Hua Zheng,Yongjuan Zhou,Jiangxiao Qiu,Zhiyun Ouyang +12 more
TL;DR: The results indicated considerable spatial and temporal variation in CH4 emissions from the TGR, and long-term CH4 measurements and modeling in a large region are necessary to accurately estimate greenhouse gas emissions fromThe TGR.

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.
