Despite the considerable contribution of hydropower in driving the American economy for
over a century, the rationale for hydropower in the US energy mix needs to be reassessed in …

To stabilize the climate, we must rapidly displace fossil fuels with clean energy technologies.
Currently hydropower dominates renewable electricity generation, accounting for two-thirds …

Run-of-river (ROR) power plants impound limited terrestrial areas compared to traditional
hydropower plants with large reservoirs and are assumed to have reduced impacts on …

Hydroelectric reservoirs can emit significant quantities of methane, particularly through
degassing at turbine outlets. Improved understanding of processes affecting hydroelectric …

River impoundments have been identified as important emission hot spots of the
greenhouse gas methane. In this study, we investigated methane dynamics of five river …

Inland urban wetlands are significant sources of CO 2 and CH 4. Wetland carbon fluxes can
be influenced by management (eg, restoration), impacting atmospheric carbon emissions …

Extreme hydrological and thermal regimes characterize the Mediterranean zone and can
influence the phenology of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in reservoirs. Our study …

Background Storage reservoirs of radioactive waste could be the source of atmospheric
pollution due to the efflux of aqueous aerosol from their water areas. The main mechanism …

Ebullition transports large amounts of the potent greenhouse gas methane (CH 4) from
aquatic sediments to the atmosphere. River beds are a main source of biogenic CH 4, but …

This paper presents the results of methane flux field measurements on thermokarst lakes of
the Russian north on three key sites: foothills of the Polar Urals, coast of the Kara Sea and …
