Globally, inland waters emit over 2 Pg of carbon per year as carbon dioxide, of which the
majority originates from streams and rivers. Despite the global significance of fluvial carbon …

Land use and urbanization indirectly control riverine CH4 and CO2 emissions by altering nutrient input

P Cui, L Cui, Y Zheng, F Su - Water Research, 2024 - Elsevier
Urban rivers are recognized as significant sources of methane (CH 4) and carbon dioxide
(CO 2) emissions. Despite this, the influence of land use and urbanization on carbon …

Biological consequences of weak acidification caused by elevated carbon dioxide in freshwater ecosystems

CT Hasler, JD Jeffrey, EVC Schneider, KD Hannan… - Hydrobiologia, 2018 - Springer
Weak acidification can occur in freshwater ecosystems when free carbon dioxide (CO 2)
