HT Odum's influential Limnology and Oceanography 1956 publication compared gross
primary production (GPP) and ecosystem respiration (ER) among aquatic ecosystems. Few …

Inland water carbon (C) sequestration rates play a potentially important role in the balance
between C supplies from the atmosphere and associated watersheds and the net demand of …

Methane (CH4) strongly contributes to observed global warming. As natural CH4 emissions
mainly originate from wet ecosystems, it is important to unravel how climate change may …

High‐frequency physical observations from 40 temperate lakes were used to examine the
relative contributions of wind shear (u*) and convection (w*) to turbulence in the surface …

Measurements of the production and consumption of organic material have been a focus of
aquatic science for more than 80 years. Over the last century, a variety of approaches have …

Weather‐related episodic events are typically unpredictable, and their duration is often
short. Abiotic and biological responses are often missed in routine monitoring. These …

Small water systems are important hotspots of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission, but
estimates are poorly constrained as data are scarce. Small ponds are often constructed in …

The modelling community has identified challenges for the integration and assessment of
lake models due to the diversity of modelling approaches and lakes. In this study, we …

Metabolism is a fundamental process in ecosystems that crosses multiple scales of
organization from individual organisms to whole ecosystems. To improve sharing and reuse …

Global quantitative estimations of ecosystem functions are vital. Among those, ecosystem
respiration and photosynthesis contribute to carbon cycling and energy flow to food webs …
