Hydropower, which contributes to around 16% of global electricity and more than 72% of
renewable electricity, is expected to play an important role in the deep decarbonization of …

Inland waters serve as important hydrological connections between the terrestrial landscape
and oceans but are often overlooked in global carbon (C) budgets and Earth System …

Collectively, reservoirs created by dams are thought to be an important source of
greenhouse gases (GHGs) to the atmosphere. So far, efforts to quantify, model, and manage …

Inland waters (rivers, reservoirs, lakes, ponds, streams) and estuaries are significant emitters
of methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) to the atmosphere, while global estimates of …

Inland aquatic systems, such as reservoirs, contribute substantially to global methane (CH4)
emissions; yet are among the most uncertain components of the total CH4 budget …

Water-level fluctuations due to reservoir management could substantially affect the timing
and magnitude of reservoir methane (CH4) fluxes to the atmosphere. However, effects of …

Freshwater reservoirs are an important source of the greenhouse gas methane (CH4) to the
atmosphere, but global emission estimates are poorly constrained (13.3–52.5 Tg C yr− 1) …

Stream networks have recently been discovered to be major but poorly constrained natural
greenhouse gas (GHG) sources. A fundamental problem is that several measurement …

Irrigation reduces crop vulnerability to drought and heat stress and thus is a promising
climate change adaptation strategy. However, irrigation also produces greenhouse gas …

Surface water concentrations of CO 2, CH 4, and N 2 O have rarely been measured
simultaneously in river systems modified by human activities, contributing to large …
