Hydrological impacts on the carbon dynamics of large tropical river systems KU Leuven
Rivers form an important connection between the three major pools of the fast cycling domain of the global carbon (C) cycle, i.e., the terrestrial, atmospheric and oceanic C pools. In initial representations of the global C cycle, rivers have been represented as inactive pipes which simply transfer C from the terrestrial pool to the oceans. However, it has now been recognized that a significant amount of C processing takes place in rivers ...
