Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Flow and Hydrochemistry in Drainage Networks

Despite their high ecological value, non-perennial streams have received less attention than their perennial counterparts. This doctoral thesis addresses this disparity by advancing knowledge on the dynamics of the drainage density and hydrologic processes ...

Homogeneous Environmental Selection Structures the Bacterial Communities of Benthic Biofilms in Proglacial Floodplain Streams

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Susheel Bhanu Busi, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Leïla Ezzat, Massimo Bourquin, Tyler Joe Kohler, Jade Brandani, Stylianos Fodelianakis

Streams draining proglacial floodplains harbor benthic biofilms comprised of diverse microbial communities. These high-mountain ecosystems are rapidly changing with climate warming, and it is therefore critical to better understand the mechanisms underlyin ...

Response of alpine stream biofilms to climate change induced stressors

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Grégoire Marie Octave Edouard Michoud, Nicola Deluigi, David Touchette, Martina Gonzalez Mateu, Stylianos Fodelianakis, Paraskevi Pramateftaki

Alpine streams are expected to face an intensification of environmental stressors due to climate change. Being at the interface of the vanishing cryosphere, alpine streams are particularly susceptible to increasing temperatures and to changing hydrology. A ...

Evolution of stream and lake water temperature under climate change

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Adrien Michel, Bettina Schaefli, Carl Love Mikael Råman Vinnå, Martin Schmid

This report presents past observations and projects the future development of water temperature in Swiss lakes and rivers. Projections are made until the end of the 21st century using the CH2018 climate scenarios. Besides climate change effects on temperat ...

Stream temperature and discharge evolution in Switzerland over the last 50 years: annual and seasonal behaviour

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Adrien Michel, Bettina Schaefli, Tristan Jonas Brauchli

Stream temperature and discharge are key hydro- logical variables for ecosystem and water resource management and are particularly sensitive to climate warming. Despite the wealth of meteorological and hydrological data, few studies have quantified observe ...

Stream Temperature Evolution in Switzerland: Recent past and future

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Adrien Michel, Bettina Schaefli, Nander Wever, Tristan Jonas Brauchli

Climate change has already affected many components of our natural environment which are well described in the literature. Water temperature has received less interest despite the fact that it is recognized as key variable for assessing water quality of fr ...

Daily entropy of dissolved oxygen reveals different energetic regimes and drivers among high‐mountain stream types

Tom Ian Battin, Mélanie Clémençon

High‐resolution time series of dissolved oxygen (DO) have revealed different ecosystem energetics regimes across various stream types. Ecosystem energetic regimes are relevant to better understand the transformation and retention of nutrients and carbon in ...

SESTET: A spatially explicit stream temperature model based on equilibrium temperature

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Luca Carraro, Marco Toffolon

Stream-water temperature is a key variable controlling chemical, biological, and ecological processes in freshwater environments. Most models focus on a single river cross-section; however, temperature gradients along stretches and tributaries of a river n ...

Spatiotemporal Drivers of CO2 Dynamics and Evasion Fluxes from Mountain Streams

Asa Lovisa Viktoria Horgby

Inland waters are key components of the global carbon cycle, emitting a substantial amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) to the atmosphere. Climate change and global warming affect mountain catchments significantly, leading to glacier retreat and changing precip ...

Continental-scale decrease in net primary productivity in streams due to climate warming

Janine Rüegg

Streams play a key role in the global carbon cycle. The balance between carbon intake through photosynthesis and carbon release via respiration influences carbon emissions from streams and depends on temperature. However, the lack of a comprehensive analys ...
