Primary and Net Ecosystem Production in a Large Lake Diagnosed From High-Resolution Oxygen Measurements

Alfred Johny Wüest, Camille Roland Marie Minaudo, Bieito Fernandez Castro, Hannah Elisa Chmiel, Shubham Krishna, Pascal Perolo

The rates of gross primary production (GPP), ecosystem respiration (R), and net ecosystem production (NEP) provide quantitative information about the cycling of carbon and energy in aquatic ecosystems. In lakes, metabolic rates are often diagnosed from die ...

The Metabolic Regimes at the Scale of an Entire Stream Network Unveiled Through Sensor Data and Machine Learning

Tom Ian Battin, Enrico Bertuzzo, Pier Luigi Segatto

Streams and rivers form dense networks that drain the terrestrial landscape and are relevant for biodiversity dynamics, ecosystem functioning, and transport and transformation of carbon. Yet, resolving in both space and time gross primary production (GPP), ...

Modeling the coupled dynamics of stream metabolism and microbial biomass

Tom Ian Battin, Enrico Bertuzzo, Pier Luigi Segatto

Estimating and interpreting ecosystem metabolism remains an important challenge in stream ecology. Here, we propose a novel approach to model, estimate, and predict multiseasonal patterns of stream metabolism (gross primary production [GPP] and ecosystem r ...

Assessing the responses of Sphagnum micro-eukaryotes to climate changes using high throughput sequencing

Alexandre Buttler, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Enrique Lara

Current projections suggest that climate warming will be accompanied by more frequent and severe drought events. Peatlands store ca. one third of the world's soil organic carbon. Warming and drought may cause peatlands to become carbon sources through stim ...

Experimental evidence reveals impact of drought periods on dissolved organic matter quality and ecosystem metabolism in subalpine streams

Tom Ian Battin

Subalpine streams are predicted to experience lower summer discharge following climate change and water extractions. In this study, we aimed to understand how drought periods impact dissolved organic matter (DOM) processing and ecosystem metabolism of suba ...

Continental-scale decrease in net primary productivity in streams due to climate warming

Janine Rüegg

Streams play a key role in the global carbon cycle. The balance between carbon intake through photosynthesis and carbon release via respiration influences carbon emissions from streams and depends on temperature. However, the lack of a comprehensive analys ...

Climate-Induced Changes in Spring Snowmelt Impact Ecosystem Metabolism and Carbon Fluxes in an Alpine Stream Network

Enrico Bertuzzo, Tom Ian Battin, Amber Joy Ulseth

Although stream ecosystems are recognized as an important component of the global carbon cycle, the impacts of climate-induced hydrological extremes on carbon fluxes in stream networks remain unclear. Using continuous measurements of ecosystem metabolism, ...

Freeze-thaw cycles simultaneously decrease peatland photosynthetic carbon uptake and ecosystem respiration

Alexandre Buttler, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Constant Signarbieux, Robert Thomas Edmund Mills

Decreasing snow cover in winter resulting from climate warming increases the incidence of freeze-thaw cycles (FTCs) in many ecosystems, including peatlands. As peatland ecosystems form a globally significant long-term carbon storage, understanding the effe ...

Land use controls stream ecosystem metabolism by shifting dissolved organic matter and nutrient regimes

Amber Joy Ulseth

Stream ecosystem metabolism integrates production and respiration of organic matter and plays a fundamental role in the global carbon (C) cycle. Several studies have identified distal and proximal physical controls, for example, land use and transient s ...

Light availability affects stream biofilm bacterial community composition and function, but not diversity

Tom Ian Battin

Changes in riparian vegetation or water turbidity and browning in streams alter the local light regime with potential implications for stream biofilms and ecosystem functioning. We experimented with biofilms in microcosms grown under a gradient of light in ...
