Quantifying the Local-to-Global Greenhouse Gas Exchanges of Inland Waters
Session ID#: 248610
Session Description:
The flow of water from inland ecosystems to the world’s oceans facilitates the lateral transport of greenhouse gases (GHGs), during which rivers and streams can act as GHG sources. These fluxes are dictated by myriad environmental factors and contributions of headwaters, low-order tributaries, and small surface area wetlands. The roles of these sources and sinks are not well-understood nor are they easily incorporated into global aquatic flux estimates. Efforts to better understand the role of inland waters in GHG cycles span from in-situ field campaigns to the use of space-based Earth-observing platforms. This session focuses on the quantification of lateral GHG fluxes (1) between riparian zones and inland waters, (2) in the biological processes within inland waters, (3) and in lake-/river-atmosphere interactions at various spatiotemporal scales.
