Climate change is identified as a major threat to wetlands. Altered hydrology and rising
temperature can change the biogeochemistry and function of a wetland to the degree that …

Contaminant containment measures are often necessary to prevent or minimize offsite
movement of contaminated materials for disposal or other purposes when they can be …

While there is a general sense that lakes can act as sentinels of climate change, their
efficacy has not been thoroughly analyzed. We identified the key response variables within a …

Because freshwater covers such a small fraction of the Earth's surface area, inland
freshwater ecosystems (particularly lakes, rivers, and reservoirs) have rarely been …

Peatlands store vast amounts of organic carbon, amounting to approximately 455 Pg.
Carbon builds up in these water-saturated environments owing to the presence of phenolic …

Landscape changes resulting from anthropogenic activities and climate changes severely
impact surface water quality. A global perspective on understanding their relationship is a …

The globally important nature of wetland ecosystems has led to their increased protection
and restoration as well as their use in engineered systems. Underpinning the beneficial …

The Earth's climate is determined by a number of complex connected physical, chemical and
biological processes occurring in the atmosphere, land and ocean. The radiative properties …

Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain recent, widespread increases in
concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in the surface waters of glaciated …

Humic substances (HS), a highly transformed part of non-living natural organic matter
(NOM), comprise up to 70% of the soil organic matter (SOM), 50–80% of dissolved organic …
