Terrestrial-Aquatic Linkages: Watershed (Geologic and Vegetation) Runoff Influences on Primary Production of a Sub Alpine Lake
Nutrient transfer via runoff from terrestrial to aquatic ecosystems has the potential to enrich aquatic productivity and change algal composition. There has been increased cultural eutrophication of fresh water bodies from increased combustion and atmospheric deposition of nutrients, land …

Seasonal Variation in Rates of Nitrification Associated with Patterns of Carbon and Nitrogen Supply in a Southern Appalachian Headwater Stream
… could further enhance our understanding of linkages between ecosystem carbon (C) and N cycles. Hugh White Creek, a headwater stream located in the southern Appalachian mountains of North Carolina, USA, receives large amounts of allochthonous POM inputs each fall. To address the effects of …

Moving beyond the stream reach: Assessing how confluences alter ecosystem function and water quality in freshwater networks
… and transport materials from upstream and terrestrial sources that support in-stream ecosystem processes and regulate downstream water quality. Understanding how these processes within a stream alter downstream carbon and nutrient fluxes is needed to assess the functional role of lotic …

From land to water: the impacts of forest disturbances on carbon cycling in northern catchments
Boreal forests hold 32% of the world’s terrestrial organic matter and are continually disturbed by biotic and abiotic events. These disturbances are especially important since they facilitate the redistribution of nutrients within and between ecosystems, which can alter resource use and …
