River networks represent the largest biogeochemical nexus between the continents, ocean
and atmosphere. Our current understanding of the role of rivers in the global carbon cycle …

High-frequency water quality measurements in streams and rivers have expanded in scope
and sophistication during the last two decades. Existing technology allows in situ automated …

The processes and biomass that characterize any ecosystem are fundamentally constrained
by the total amount of energy that is either fixed within or delivered across its boundaries …

Scaling is an integral component of ecology and earth science. To date, the ability to
determine the importance of air–water gas exchange across large spatial scales is …

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a potent greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change and
stratospheric ozone destruction. Anthropogenic nitrogen (N) loading to river networks is a …

Landscape urbanization broadly alters watersheds and stream ecosystems, yet the impact of
nonpoint source urban inputs on the quantity, quality, and ultimate fate of dissolved organic …

Human impacts, particularly nutrient pollution and land‐use change, have caused significant
declines in the quality and quantity of freshwater resources. Most global assessments have …

HT Odum's influential Limnology and Oceanography 1956 publication compared gross
primary production (GPP) and ecosystem respiration (ER) among aquatic ecosystems. Few …

Ecosystem metabolism, that is, gross primary productivity (GPP) and ecosystem respiration
(ER), controls organic carbon (OC) cycling in stream and river networks and is expected to …

Headwater streams draining urbanized watersheds are subject to frequent and intense
storm flows. These floods can disrupt metabolic processes occurring in benthic biofilms via …
