Toward relaxed eddy accumulation measurements of sediment‐water exchange in aquatic ecosystems
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Geophysical Research Letters"
DOI: 10.1002/2017gl074625
Abstract: Solute transport across the sediment-water interface has major implications for water quality and biogeochemical cycling in aquatic ecosystems. Existing measurement techniques, however, are not capable of resolving sediment-water fluxes of most constituents under in situ… read more here.

Environmental feedbacks in temperate aquatic ecosystems under global change: why do we need to consider chemical stressors?
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Regional Environmental Change"
DOI: 10.1007/s10113-017-1197-2
Abstract: Globally increasing temperature and modifications in precipitation patterns induce major environmental alterations in aquatic ecosystems. Particularly profound changes are predicted for arctic to temperate shallow lakes where modifications in temperature affect the distribution of ice… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-018-3672-2
Abstract: Organic matter (OM) is degraded during transport from soils to oceans. However, there are spatial and temporal variabilities along the aquatic continuum, which hamper the development of carbon cycling models. One concept that has been… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-020-04362-3
Abstract: Most of the hydropower generated in Canada’s western province of British Columbia is generated by a small number of large storage or diversion projects that impound large rivers. All but one were built between 1950… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13744-017-0503-5
Abstract: Odonata have been widely used as indicators for the biomonitoring of terrestrial and aquatic habitats due to their sensitivity to environmental impacts. We aimed to determine whether the larval or adult phases of these insects… read more here.
