Getting lost tracking the carbon footprint of hydropower
In the transition to low-carbon electricity, well-quantified estimates of carbon dynamics are
needed to ensure that emissions reduction targets are achieved. We review the state of the …

Spatiotemporal methane emission from global reservoirs
Inland aquatic systems, such as reservoirs, contribute substantially to global methane (CH4)
emissions; yet are among the most uncertain components of the total CH4 budget …

Large Spatial Variations in Diffusive CH4 Fluxes from a Subtropical Coastal Reservoir Affected by Sewage Discharge in Southeast China
Coastal reservoirs are potentially CH4 emission hotspots owing to their biogeochemical role
as the sinks of anthropogenic carbon and nutrients. Yet, the fine-scale spatial variations in …

Effects of an experimental water-level drawdown on methane emissions from a eutrophic reservoir
JJ Beaulieu, DA Balz, MK Birchfield, JA Harrison… - Ecosystems, 2018 - Springer
Reservoirs are a globally significant source of methane (CH 4) to the atmosphere. However,
emission rate estimates may be biased low due to inadequate monitoring during brief …

Seasonal and diel variability of CO2 emissions from a semiarid hard-water reservoir
Reservoirs represent a key component of the global carbon cycle. However, estimates of
carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions from reservoirs remain poorly constrained due to the …

Methane and nitrous oxide annual emissions from an old eutrophic temperate reservoir
Two greenhouse gases–methane (CH 4) and nitrous oxide (N 2 O)-were monitored monthly
during one year (2011) at the Eguzon Reservoir in France. The objective of the study was to …
