Aquatic Biogeochemistry
Aquatic ecosystems release large amounts of greenhouse gas (GHG) into the atmosphere, yet their contribution remains uncertain due to their dynamic and heterogeneous environments.
.
We investigate aquatic GHG fluxes by integrating two key components: hydrology and biogeochemistry. Using a combination of automated sensors in the field and advanced laboratory analyzers, we document carbon sources, quantities, transformation processes, and their fate throughout the aquatic continuum.
.
These complementary approaches improve our ability to provide robust estimates of GHG fluxes. By advancing our understanding of aquatic biogeochemistry, we contribute to more accurate climate models and better strategies for water resource management and climate change mitigation.
