Why scale is vital to plan optimal Nature-Based Solutions for resilient cities
A need for multi-functional assessment tools evaluating trade-offs and co-benefits for various types of Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) has been increasingly identified in recent years. Methodologically, concepts for a tool are presented which include quantifying the demand and potential for NBS to enhance ecosystem service (ES) provision, and linking ESs to readily quantifiable and legislatively-relevant environmental quality indicators (EQIs). The…
Microplastics increase the marine production of particulate forms of organic matter
Microplastics are a major environmental challenge, being ubiquitous and persistent as to represent a new component in all marine environments. As any biogenic particle, microplastics provide surfaces for microbial growth and biofilm production, which largely consists of carbohydrates and proteins. Biofilms influence microbial activity and modify particle buoyancy, and therefore control the fate of microplastics at sea. In a simulated ‘plastic oce…
Variability of particulate organic carbon in inland waters observed from Modis Aqua imagery
Using VIIRS/NPP and MODIS/Aqua data to provide a continuous record of suspended particulate matter in a highly turbid inland lake
Optical approaches to examining the dynamics of dissolved organic carbon in optically complex inland waters
Optical approaches were developed to examine the relationship between the optically active and the optically inactive fractions of dissolved organic carbon in inland waters. A multiple linear regression model was developed on the basis of an extensive dataset from Taihu Lake, and validated employing data from another large shallow eutrophic lake (Chaohu Lake) in southern China. The model was used to estimate the concentration of dissolved organic…
A new three-band algorithm for estimating chlorophyll concentrations in turbid inland lakes
A new three-band model was developed to estimate chlorophyll-a concentrations in turbid \ninland waters. This model makes a number of important improvements with respect to the \nthree-band model commonly used, including lower restrictions on wavelength optimization and \nthe use of coefficients which represent specific inherent optical properties. Results showed that \nthe new model provides a significantly higher determination coefficient and l…
Lakes and reservoirs as regulators of carbon cycling and climate
We explore the role of lakes in carbon cycling and global climate, examine the mechanisms influencing carbon pools and transformations in lakes, and discuss how the metabolism of carbon in the inland waters is likely to change in response to climate. Furthermore, we project changes as global climate change in the abundance and spatial distribution of lakes in the biosphere, and we revise the estimate for the global extent of carbon transformation…
Qualitative modelling tools for rural ecosystem management
Shallow lakes and wetlands are highly complex systems in which actions affecting a single compartment can have repercussions far away from the target parameter and those directly related species. In a large-scale study of the Esteros del Ibera wetland in Argentina, researchers have constructed a set of qualitative models with the objective of further understanding the interrelations between management actions and impacts on key abiotic and biotic…
