Nutrients and carbon fluxes in the estuaries of major rivers flowing into the tropical Atlantic
*Correspondence: Moacyr Araujo, Department of Oceanography DOCEAN, Federal University of Pernambuco, Av. Arquitetura, s/n, Cidade Universitária, Recife, PE 50740-550, Brazil e-mail: [email protected] Knowledge of the seasonal variability of river discharge and the concentration of nutrients in the estuary waters of large rivers flowing into the tropical Atlantic contributes to a better understanding ...
متن کاملContrasting vulnerability of drained tropical and high-latitude peatlands to fluvial loss of stored carbon
Carbon sequestration and storage in peatlands rely on consistently highwater tables. Anthropogenic pressures including drainage, burning, land conversion for agriculture, timber, and biofuel production, cause loss of peat-forming vegetation and exposure of previously anaerobic peat to aerobic decomposition. This can shift peatlands from net CO2 sinks to large CO2 sources, releasing carbon held ...
متن کاملCarbon Stocks and Fluxes in Tropical Lowland Dipterocarp Rainforests in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo
Deforestation in the tropics is an important source of carbon C release to the atmosphere. To provide a sound scientific base for efforts taken to reduce emissions from deforestation and degradation (REDD+) good estimates of C stocks and fluxes are important. We present components of the C balance for selectively logged lowland tropical dipterocarp rainforest in the Malua Forest Reserve of Saba...
