Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations in lakes are changing globally, but little is
known about potential ecosystem impacts. We evaluated the relationship between DOC and …

Climate change and permafrost thaw are unlocking the vast storage of organic carbon held
in northern frozen soils. Here, we evaluated the effects of thawing ice‐rich permafrost on …

In most high‐latitude wetlands, carbon accumulation as peat represents a balance between
plant net primary productivity and heterotrophic decomposition. We hypothesized that this …

Phytoplankton play a key role in supporting aquatic food webs. However, the effects of
ongoing large-scale changes in the concentrations and stoichiometry of important biological …

The trend of increasing dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in surface waters motivated us to
gain a mechanistic understanding of DOC exchange at the sediment water interface in …

Light attenuation associated with elevated levels of dissolved organic matter (ie browning) is
likely to affect the response of benthic biofilms to nutrient enrichment and warmer …

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) released by benthic algae is an important energy source in
shallow aquatic ecosystems. Here, we evaluated the amount, composition and …

Abstract In the Northern Patagonian Andes, the austral beech Nothofagus pumilio
dominates the upper limit of the temperate forest and is an important source of …

Algae play an important role in ecological processes of aquatic ecosystems. Understanding
the interactive effects of algae with invertebrates in litter decomposition is important for …

Permafrost thaw associated with warmer temperatures is expected to elevate nutrient levels
in northern aquatic ecosystems, including peatlands. To evaluate these effects on algae and …
