Northern ecosystems are experiencing some of the most dramatic impacts of global change
on Earth. Rising temperatures, hydrological intensification, changes in atmospheric acid …

Many freshwater systems receive substantial inputs of terrestrial organic matter. Terrestrially
derived dissolved organic carbon (t‐DOC) inputs can modify light availability, the spatial …

Lake ecosystems and the services that they provide to people are profoundly influenced by
dissolved organic matter derived from terrestrial plant tissues. These terrestrial dissolved …

Increases in terrestrially-derived dissolved organic matter (DOM) have led to the browning of
inland waters across regions of northeastern North America and Europe. Short-term …

The transport of resource subsidies by animals has been documented across a range of
species and ecosystems. Although many of these studies have shown that animal resource …

Widespread evidence that organic matter exported from terrestrial into aquatic ecosystems
supports recipient food webs remains controversial. A pressing question is not only whether …

Terrestrial ecosystems export large amounts of organic carbon (t‐OC) but the net effect of
this OC on the productivity of recipient aquatic ecosystems is largely unknown. In this study …

It seems improbable that a thin veneer of attached algae coating submerged surfaces in
lakes and rivers could be the foundation of many freshwater food webs, but increasing …

Based on empirical and synthetic research, lakes make, store, and mineralize organic
carbon (OC) at rates that are significant and relevant to regional and global carbon budgets …

Light availability influences temperature, primary production, nutrient dynamics, and
secondary production in aquatic ecosystems. In forested freshwater ecosystems, shading by …
