River networks represent the largest biogeochemical nexus between the continents, ocean
and atmosphere. Our current understanding of the role of rivers in the global carbon cycle …

Streams and rivers form dense networks, shape the Earth's surface and, in their sediments,
provide an immensely large surface area for microbial growth. Biofilms dominate microbial …

The magnitude of stream and river carbon dioxide (CO2) emission is affected by seasonal
changes in watershed biogeochemistry and hydrology. Global estimates of this flux are …

Northern ecosystems are experiencing some of the most dramatic impacts of global change
on Earth. Rising temperatures, hydrological intensification, changes in atmospheric acid …

Fifty years of hyporheic zone research have shown the important role played by the
hyporheic zone as an interface between groundwater and surface waters. However, it is only …

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is recognized for its importance in freshwater ecosystems,
but historical reliance on DOM quantity rather than indicators of DOM composition has led to …

Hydrological precipitation and snowmelt events trigger large “pulse” releases of terrestrial
dissolved organic matter (DOM) into drainage networks due to an increase in DOM …

Purpose Humanity has been modifying the planet in a measurable way for thousands of
years. Recently, this influence has been such that some feel we are in a new geological …

Carbon dioxide (CO2) evasion from streams and rivers to the atmosphere represents a
substantial flux in the global carbon cycle,,. The proportions of CO2 emitted from streams …

Previously regarded as the passive drains of watersheds, over the past 50 years, rivers have
progressively been recognized as being actively connected with off‐channel environments …
