Nitrogen, phosphorus, and eutrophication in streams

Walter K. Dodds, Val H. Smith · 1 Apr 2016

Flowing waters receive substantial nutrient inputs, including both nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), in many parts of the world. Eutrophication science for rivers and streams has unfortunately lagged behind that for lakes, and results from lakes might inform those interested in stream eutrophication. A key controversy in lake eutrophication science is the relative importance of…

Global abundance and size distribution of streams and rivers

John Downing · 1 Oct 2012

To better integrate lotic ecosystems into global cycles and budgets, we provide approximations of the size-distribution and areal extent of streams and rivers. One approach we used was to employ stream network theory combined with data on stream width. We also used detailed stream networks on 2 continents to estimate the fraction of continental area…

Ecological impacts of excessive water level fluctuations in stratified freshwater lakes

Tamar Zohary, Ilia Ostrovsky · 1 Apr 2011

Water levels of lakes fluctuate naturally in response to climatic and hydrological forcing. Human over-exploitation of water resources leads to increased annual and interannual fluctuations of water levels, at times far beyond natural amplitudes and/or at altered time schedules. Climate change models predict increased occurrence of extreme events (flooding, extended droughts), which will further magnify…

Carbon dioxide concentrations in eutrophic lakes: undersaturation implies atmospheric uptake

Michelle Balmer, John Downing · 1 Jul 2011

Understanding concentrations and contributions of carbon dioxide (CO2) in aquatic ecosystems is an important part of a comprehensive global carbon budget. Current dogma suggests that world lakes are important emitters of CO2 to the atmosphere. We estimated the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (ρCO2) in 131 agriculturally eutrophic lakes over a 7 year sampling period.…
