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 …

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 …

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to the atmosphere from running waters are estimated to be
four times greater than the total carbon (C) flux to the oceans. However, these fluxes remain …

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 …

Stream Ecology: Structure and Function of Running Waters is designed to serve as a
textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, and as a reference source for …

The role of allochthonous organic matter in lotic ecosystems has been an important research
topic among aquatic ecologists since the seminal work by Lindeman was published in 1942 …

Methods in Stream Ecology provides a complete series of field and laboratory protocols in
stream ecology that are ideal for teaching or conducting research. This two part new edition …

The carbon cycle modulates climate change, via the regulation of atmospheric CO2, and it
represents one of the most important services provided by ecosystems. However …

Rivers are generally supersaturated with respect to carbon dioxide, resulting in large gas
evasion fluxes that can be a significant component of regional net carbon budgets …

River health monitoring traditionally has made use of structural measurements (water quality
or taxonomic composition of aquatic organisms). We argue that a more complete …
