• Consistent temperature dependence of respiration across ecosystems contrasting in thermal history (2012, background): “Thus, the role of freshwater ecosystems as major components of the global carbon cycle is being increasingly appreciated (Algesten et al., 2004; Cole et al., 2007; Battin et al., 2008, 2009; Bastviken et al., 2011).”
• Global wetland contribution to 2000–2012 atmospheric methane growth rate dynamics (2017, background): “These include river systems (Bastviken et al 2011, Borges et al 2015), lakes (Verpoorter et al 2014, Tan and Zhuang 2015), and agriculture (Leff et al 2004, Chen et al 2013).”
• State of the world's freshwater ecosystems: physical, chemical, and biological changes. (2011, background): “Whereas freshwater CH4 emissions offset approximately 25% of the continental sink for organic C (114), lakes and reservoirs contribute to the C sink through C storage in stable, long-lasting sediments.”
