Oxygen is the most important element in natural waters for any higher aquatic life, such as fish. As with humans, almost all members of aquatic ecosystems need oxygen to breathe. Building on this, treatment of drinking water is easier for oxic than for ano ...
In an environment subject to anthropogenic pressures, the understanding of lakes is crucial as they are essential for ecosystems and represent a source of the scarce accessible freshwater existing on Earth. Water quality management is especially designed t ...
Wetlands comprise the single largest global source of atmospheric methane, but current flux estimates disagree in both magnitude and distribution at the continental scale. This study uses atmospheric methane observations over North America from 2007 to 200 ...
Use of oligochaete communities for the assessment of the biological quality and the functioning of watercourses : a review of data from the Geneva area (Switzerland). – Oligochaetes are used in some cantons in Switzerland to assess the biological quality o ...
Oxygen is the most important dissolved gas for lake ecosystems. Because low oxygen concentrations are an ongoing problem in many parts of the oceans and numerous lakes, oxygen depletion processes have been intensively studied over the last decades and were ...
Shallow gas accumulates in coastal marine sediments when the burial rate of reactive organic matter beneath the sulfate zone is sufficiently high and the methanogenic zone is sufficiently deep. We investigated the controls on methane production and free me ...
Methane (CH4) emissions from small rivers and streams, particularly via ebullition, are currently under-represented in the literature. Here, we quantify the methane effluxes and drivers in a small, Northern European river. Methane fluxes are comparable to ...
Global wetlands are believed to be climate sensitive, and are the largest natural emitters of methane (CH4). Increased wetland CH4 emissions could act as a positive feedback to future warming. The Wetland and Wetland CH4 Inter-comparison of Models Project ...
In deep stratified lakes, such as Lake Geneva, flood-driven turbidity currents are thought to contribute to the replenishment of deep oxygen by significant transport of river waters saturated with oxygen into the hypolimnion. The overarching aim of this st ...
Even though lakes only occupy a small percentage of Earth's surface, they represent a natural source of methane, contributing substantially to methane emissions and ultimately to global warming. There is extensive evidence that methane emissions from lakes ...
