Regimes of primary production and their drivers in Alpine streams

Tom Ian Battin, Amber Joy Ulseth, Marta Boix Canadell, Mélanie Clémençon

Primary production is a fundamental ecosystem process that influences nutrient and carbon cycling, and trophic structure in streams. The magnitude and timing of gross primary production (GPP) are typically controlled by hydrology, light, nutrient availa ...

Carbon fluxes and productivity regimes in Alpine streams

Marta Boix Canadell

High-altitude catchments have a major role in the transport of organic matter to streams due to the storage of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in soils and glacier ice and the subsequent mobilization during the melting processes. Yet, stream function goes b ...

Glacier retreat changes diurnal variation intensity and frequency of hydrologic variables in Alpine and Andean streams

Tom Ian Battin, Asa Lovisa Viktoria Horgby, Marta Boix Canadell, Nicolas Thomas Georges Escoffier

The impacts of glacier mass and area loss are assumed to affect stream hydrology and related ecosystems. We applied wavelet analysis to high frequency time series of discharge, conductivity, turbidity, air and water temperature in mountain streams influenc ...

Thinking like a consumer: Linking aquatic basal metabolism and consumer dynamics

Tom Ian Battin, Marta Boix Canadell, Janine Rüegg

The increasing availability of high‐frequency freshwater ecosystem metabolism data provides an opportunity to identify links between metabolic regimes, as gross primary production and ecosystem respiration patterns, and consumer energetics with the potenti ...

The export of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from catchments is considered as an important energy flux through streams and a major connection between terrestrial and aquatic systems. However, the impact that predicted hydrological changes due to glacier re ...

Inland waters are major sources of CO2 to the atmosphere. The origin of this CO2 is often elusive, especially in high‐altitude streams that remain poorly studied at present. Here we study the spatial and seasonal variations in streamwater CO2, its potentia ...

Boreal and alpine streams are highly sensitive to climate change. Previous studies have shown the relevance of streams for carbon cycling in boreal landscapes. Less work has been done on alpine streams, and we do not understand the contributions from these ...
