Abstract
The traditional compartmentalized approaches to developing inventories of carbons
pools and fluxes in the biosphere have generated gaps in the form of key components. Among
these key components, freshwater and wetland ecosystems, have been largely ignored or
assumed negligible. Recent literature suggests that freshwater ecosystems contribute
significantly to some regional carbon balances. We hypothesize, based on a preliminary
assessment of the easily available data, that these key components are critical for a reliable
estimation of carbon movements at a global scale as well. While the oceans and terrestrial forests
are responsible for the net uptake of atmospheric CO2, freshwater ecosystems process a large
amount of terrestrially-derived primary production and alter the balance between C sequestration
and net CO2 release. This project aims at synthesizing existing information on the linkage
between terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems to yield an improved representation of carbon
cycling.
