Primary and Net Ecosystem Production in a Large Lake Diagnosed From High-Resolution Oxygen Measurements
Alfred Johny Wüest, Camille Roland Marie Minaudo, Bieito Fernandez Castro, Hannah Elisa Chmiel, Shubham Krishna, Pascal Perolo
The rates of gross primary production (GPP), ecosystem respiration (R), and net ecosystem production (NEP) provide quantitative information about the cycling of carbon and energy in aquatic ecosystems. In lakes, metabolic rates are often diagnosed from die ...
2021Regimes 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 ...
More from Less? Environmental Rebound Effects of City Size
Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, João Vitor Meirelles de Miranda
Global sustainability relies on our capacity of understanding and guiding urban systems and their metabolism adequately. It has been proposed that bigger and denser cities are more resource-efficient than smaller ones because they tend to demand less infra ...
2021The Metabolic Regimes at the Scale of an Entire Stream Network Unveiled Through Sensor Data and Machine Learning
Tom Ian Battin, Enrico Bertuzzo, Pier Luigi Segatto
Streams and rivers form dense networks that drain the terrestrial landscape and are relevant for biodiversity dynamics, ecosystem functioning, and transport and transformation of carbon. Yet, resolving in both space and time gross primary production (GPP), ...
2021Nutrients influence seasonal metabolic patterns and total productivity of Arctic streams
The seasonality of gross primary production (GPP) in streams is driven by multiple physical and chemical factors, yet incident light is often thought to be most important. In Arctic tundra streams, however, light is available in saturating amounts througho ...
2020Thinking 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 ...
2020Carbon fluxes and productivity regimes in Alpine streams
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 ...
EPFL2020Adaptive Mitigation: Identification of the Dynamic Drivers of Effective Policy during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Introduction: The unprecedented speed and scale of the COVID-19 pandemic necessitated the rapid implementation of untested public health measures to mitigate the consequences of viral spread. In the 8 months that have passed since the first recognized case ...
2020Analysis of Resource Productivity and Decoupling in Nepal and Bangladesh
Developing Asian countries such as Nepal and Bangladesh have been doing well in recent years in terms of achieving improved economic growth and environmental performance. This study makes an inventory of historical data on energy and material use/intensiti ...
