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 …

River-floodplain ecosystems (RFEs) provide multiple ecosystem services. However, their
importance may be underestimated because they are not summarized yet. In this paper, we …

Soil microbes make up a significant portion of the genetic diversity and play a critical role in
belowground carbon (C) cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. Soil microbial diversity and …

Reservoirs are essential for human populations, but their global carbon footprint is
substantial (0.73–2.41 PgCO2-equivalent yr− 1). Yet the temporal evolution of reservoir …

Inland waters are important emitters of the greenhouse gasses (GHGs) carbon dioxide
(CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) to the atmosphere. In the framework of the …

Inland waters are important sources of the greenhouse gasses (GHGs) carbon dioxide
(CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) to the atmosphere. In the framework of the …

The decarbonization of energy systems requires the deployment of intermittent renewables
(wind and solar) with increasingly low costs. The growth of these renewables impacts power …

Proposed hydropower dams at more than 350 sites throughout the Amazon require strategic
evaluation of trade-offs between the numerous ecosystem services provided by Earth's …

Inland waters serve as important hydrological connections between the terrestrial landscape
and oceans but are often overlooked in global carbon (C) budgets and Earth System …

ABSTRACT Humankind faces a Triple Challenge: averting dangerous climate change,
reversing biodiversity loss, and supporting the wellbeing of a growing population. Action to …
