Journal ArticleDOI
Proliferation of Hydroelectric Dams in the Andean Amazon and Implications for Andes-Amazon Connectivity
Matt Finer,Clinton N. Jenkins +1 more
TL;DR: This work examined the potential ecological impacts, in terms of river connectivity and forest loss, of the planned proliferation of hydroelectric dams across all Andean tributaries of the Amazon River, and developed a new conceptual framework to estimate the relative impacts of all planned dams.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon dioxide and methane emissions and the carbon budget of a 10-year old tropical reservoir (Petit Saut, French Guiana)
Gwenaël Abril,Frédéric Guérin,Frédéric Guérin,Sandrine Richard,Robert J. Delmas,Corinne Galy-Lacaux,Philippe Gosse,Alain Tremblay,Louis Varfalvy,Marco Aurélio dos Santos,Bohdan Matvienko +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors confirm the significance of greenhouse gas emissions from tropical reservoir but stress the importance of considering all the gas pathways upstream and downstream of the dams and taking into account the reservoir age when upscaling emissions rates at the global scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fluxes of methane, carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide in boreal lakes and potential anthropogenic effects on the aquatic greenhouse gas emissions
Jari T. Huttunen,Jukka Alm,Anu Liikanen,Sari Juutinen,Tuula Larmola,Taina Hammar,Jouko Silvola,Pertti J. Martikainen +7 more
TL;DR: It seems that autochth onous and allochthonous carbon sources, which contribute to the CH(4) and CO(2) production in lakes, also have importance in the greenhouse gas emissions from reservoirs.
Journal ArticleDOI
The ecology of methane in streams and rivers: patterns, controls, and global significance
Emily H. Stanley,N. J. Casson,Samuel T. Christel,John Crawford,Luke C. Loken,Samantha K. Oliver +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, support for the North Temperate Lakes LTER program was provided by NSF DEB DEB0822700, which was used to train a LTER classifier.
Journal ArticleDOI
Budgets of soil erosion and deposition for sediments and sedimentary organic carbon across the conterminous United States
TL;DR: The fate of soil organic matter during erosion and sedimentation has been difficult to assess because of the large size and complex turnover characteristics of the soil carbon reservoir, and it has been assumed that most of the carbon released during erosion is lost to oxidation as discussed by the authors.

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.
