Attribution of global lake systems change to anthropogenic forcing

Luke Grant et al.

Summary: An attribution analysis based on hindcasts and projections from lake models shows that anthropogenic climate change is impacting the temperature and ice cover of lakes globally. The changes in lakes are likely due to human-induced climate change, rather than natural climate variability.

Microbial methane oxidation efficiency and robustness during lake overturn

M. Zimmermann et al.

Summary: Seasonally stratified lakes can accumulate significant amounts of methane, which is then efficiently converted into carbon dioxide and biomass by methane oxidizing bacteria in the water column. The efficiency and robustness of this methane converter are affected by mixing velocities, with rare events of surface cooling triggering substantial outgassing. Storm frequency may play a significant role in methane emissions in similar temperate lakes.

Half of global methane emissions come from highly variable aquatic ecosystem sources

Judith A. Rosentreter et al.

Summary: The study shows that aquatic ecosystems play a significant role in global methane emissions, with emissions varying greatly within and between different types of aquatic systems. Methane emissions increase from natural to impacted aquatic ecosystems and from coastal to freshwater ecosystems.

When does temperature matter for ecosystem respiration?

Cristian Gudasz et al.

Summary: Research shows that absolute respiration rates are more sensitive to non-temperature factors than direct temperature effects in certain temperature ranges, but become more influenced by temperature sensitivity at higher temperatures. This suggests that the impact of temperature changes on respiration may vary across different latitudes.

Year-2020 Global Distribution and Pathways of Reservoir Methane and Carbon Dioxide Emissions According to the Greenhouse Gas From Reservoirs (G-res) Model

John A. Harrison et al.

Summary: The study shows that CH4 fluxes from reservoirs are much larger than previously recognized, while CO2 emissions are similar to past reports. Global reservoir GHG fluxes are higher than suggested by previous studies by over 29%, with dominant emissions pathways varying in different regions. Additionally, GHG fluxes are highly sensitive to input parameters that may be influenced by climate change in the future.

Spatiotemporal Methane Emission From Global Reservoirs

Matthew S. Johnson et al.

Summary: Inland aquatic systems, such as reservoirs, are significant contributors to global methane emissions, with reservoirs covering 297 x 10(3) km(2) globally and emitting 10.1 Tg CH4 yr(-1), primarily from diffusive and ebullitive pathways. This new study addresses gaps and uncertainties in previous research, providing valuable insights for understanding and modeling the role of reservoirs in the global methane budget and guiding efforts to reduce reservoir-related methane emissions.
