Dissolved inorganic carbon export from rivers of Great Britain: Spatial distribution and potential catchment-scale controls (2022)
Journal Article
Tye, A. M., Williamson, J. L., Jarvie, H. P., Dise, N. B., Lapworth, D. J., Monteith, D., …Evans, C. D. (2022). Dissolved inorganic carbon export from rivers of Great Britain: Spatial distribution and potential catchment-scale controls. Journal of Hydrology, 615(Part A), Article 128677. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2022.128677

Dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) fluxes from the land to ocean have been quantified for many rivers globally. However, CO2 fluxes to the atmosphere from inland waters are quantitatively significant components of the global carbon cycle that are curre...

River water temperature demonstrates resistance to long‐term air temperature change (2022)
Journal Article
Worrall, F., Howden, N. J., Burt, T. P., & Hannah, D. M. (2022). River water temperature demonstrates resistance to long‐term air temperature change. Hydrological Processes, 36(11), https://doi.org/10.1002/hyp.14732

Ecosystem health and water quality of rivers are dependent on their temperature. With ongoing human-induced climate change causing increases in air temperature across the globe, it is anticipated the stream temperatures will rise too—in turn increasi...

Spatial and Temporal Patterns in Atmospheric Deposition of Dissolved Organic Carbon (2022)
Journal Article
Liptzin, D., Boy, J., Campbell, J. L., Clarke, N., Laclau, J., Godoy, R., …McDowell, W. H. (2022). Spatial and Temporal Patterns in Atmospheric Deposition of Dissolved Organic Carbon. Global Biogeochemical Cycles, 36(10), https://doi.org/10.1029/2022gb007393

Atmospheric deposition of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to terrestrial ecosystems is a small, but rarely studied component of the global carbon (C) cycle. Emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) and organic particulates are the sources of atmo... Read More about Spatial and Temporal Patterns in Atmospheric Deposition of Dissolved Organic Carbon.

Slopes: solute processes and landforms (2022)
Journal Article
Burt, T., Pinay, G., Worrall, F., & Howden, N. (2022). Slopes: solute processes and landforms. Memoirs, 58(1), 191-204. https://doi.org/10.1144/m58-2021-5

This chapter reviews research on solutes by fluvial geomorphologists in the period 1965–2000; growing links with biogeochemical research are emphasized later in the chapter. Brief reference is necessarily made to some research from before and after t... Read More about Slopes: solute processes and landforms.

Constraining the Carbon Budget of Peat Ecosystems: Application of Stoichiometry and Enthalpy Balances (2022)
Journal Article
Worrall, F., Boothroyd, I. M., Clay, G. D., Moody, C. S., Heckman, K., Burt, T. P., & Rose, R. (2022). Constraining the Carbon Budget of Peat Ecosystems: Application of Stoichiometry and Enthalpy Balances. Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, 127(10), https://doi.org/10.1029/2022jg007003

We consider how the stoichiometry and energy content of organic matter reservoirs and fluxes through and from a peatland enable the fluxes and storage of carbon within a peatland to be constrained. We include the elemental composition of the above- a... Read More about Constraining the Carbon Budget of Peat Ecosystems: Application of Stoichiometry and Enthalpy Balances.

Is water quality in British rivers “better than at any time since the end of the Industrial Revolution”? (2022)
Journal Article
Whelan, M., Linstead, C., Worrall, F., Ormerod, S., Durance, I., Johnson, A., …Tickner, D. (2022). Is water quality in British rivers “better than at any time since the end of the Industrial Revolution”?. Science of the Total Environment, 843, Article 157014. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.157014

We explore the oft-repeated claim that river water quality in Great Britain is “better now than at any time since the Industrial Revolution”. We review available data and ancillary evidence for seven different categories of water pollutants: (i) bioc...

Carbon Loss Pathways in Degraded Peatlands: New Insights From Radiocarbon Measurements of Peatland Waters (2022)
Journal Article
Evans, M. G., Alderson, D. M., Evans, C. D., Stimson, A., Allott, T. E., Goulsbra, C., …Rowson, J. (2022). Carbon Loss Pathways in Degraded Peatlands: New Insights From Radiocarbon Measurements of Peatland Waters. Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, 127(7), https://doi.org/10.1029/2021jg006344

Peatland carbon stores are under widespread anthropogenic pressure, resulting in degradation and carbon loss. This paper presents DO14C (Dissolved Organic Carbon) dates from waters draining two eroded blanket peatland catchments in the UK. Both catch...
