DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.9b03438
Abstract: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions show large variability among dam reservoirs, which makes it difficult to estimate N2O contributions to global greenhouse gases (GHGs). Because river damming alters hydraulic residence time and water depth, the hydraulic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0269389
Abstract: Climate warming accelerates the hydrological cycle, especially in high-latitude and high-altitude areas. The increase in temperature will increase the amount of snow and glacier melting and change the runoff, which will affect the operations of… read more here.

DOI: 10.30638/eemj.2017.077
Abstract: The purpose of the reservoir operation during flood period is to obtain the outflow hydrograph as flat as possible. Although simple in case of a unique reservoir, the problem becomes very complex for large systems… read more here.

A long-term study on zooplankton in two contrasting cascade reservoirs (Iguaçu River, Brazil): effects of inter-annual, seasonal, and environmental factors
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "PeerJ"
DOI: 10.7717/peerj.8979
Abstract: Background In reservoirs, zooplankton strongly interact with the physical and chemical characteristics of water, and this interaction is mainly influenced by climate variation and the different methods used to manage the dam water level. Therefore,… read more here.
