Abstract:
Riverine carbon (C) export and GHG (CO2, CH4 and N2O) emissions play important roles in the global GHG budgets, dynamics of continental shelf ecosystems and biosphere-climate feedback. Despite making up only 0.3% of the global area, rivers tightly connect two of the largest active C reservoirs on earth: terrestrial ecosystems and oceans. Natural and human-induced changes in the terrestrial C and nitrogen (N) cycles could greatly alter the magnitude and temporal patterns of terrestrial C and N exports to rivers, which would affect C and N dynamics of receiving freshwater and marine ecosystems, and exert a strong influence on the atmospheric radiation balance through the exchange of greenhouse gases. Therefore, it is essential to provide a robust estimate of riverine C fluxes and GHG emissions for a better understanding the global C and N cycles and the climate system. However, a reliable estimate of the riverine C and N exports and inland water GHG emissions is lacking. Process-based modeling of riverine C and N exports and GHG emission, which couples major biogeochemical and hydrological cycles, provides an alternative to empirical methods, that enables a more robust estimation of riverine GHG budgets and the response to changing climate and human disturbance. Here we used a process-based land-aquatic interface model, the Dynamic Land Ecosystem Model (DLEM), in conjunction with several sources of data, to quantify the magnitude and spatiotemporal patterns of riverine C export (DOC, TOC, DIC) from global land to coastal oceans and GHG emissions from global inland water systems.
