Abstract Isotope hydrological studies to understand groundwater‐surface water interactions in tropical, high‐elevation catchments are limited. These important controlling lake residence time, aqueous biogeochemistry, and availability for downstream communities ecosystems. To better comprehend the complexity of spatio‐temporal variations aquifer‐lake domain tropical volcanic regions, a multi‐tracer approach including inorganic carbon stable isotopes (δ 2 H, δ 18 O, 13 C DIC ), hydrochemistry, 222 Rn was applied Lake Hule, northern Costa Rica. Seasonal isotope mass balance calculations using lake, stream, precipitation, groundwater compositions were supplemented with local hydrometeorological information. Evaporation inflow ratios ( E/I ) revealed small variability between dry (December–April) wet seasons (May–November), relatively low evaporation losses, 2.9 ± 1.0 % 3.2 1.8 %, respectively. Bayesian end‐member analysis indicated that annual inputs from groundwater, runoff represented 61.3 8.1%, 24.4 8.4, 14.3 5.9% total inflow, Temporal confirmed key role carbonate buffering plays this greater CO degassing sources season. This tracer‐aided assessment maar Rica provides evidence previously unknown illustrates application isotopic tools estimating balances seasonal discharge into natural lakes across front Central America.

Abstract Carbon dioxide () fluxes in regulated Alpine rivers are driven by multiple biogeochemical and anthropogenic processes, acting on different spatiotemporal scales. We quantified the relative importance of these drivers their effects dynamics concentration atmospheric exchange a representative river segment cascading hydropower system with diversion, which includes two residual flow reaches reach subject to hydropeaking. combined instantaneous time‐resolved water chemistry hydraulic measurements at times year, main calibrating one‐dimensional transport‐reaction model measured data. As novelty compared previous inverse modeling applications, also included carbonate buffering, contributed significantly budget case study. The distribution depended operations. Along reaches, were directly affected upstream dams only first 2.5 km, where supply supersaturated from reservoirs was predominant. Downstream diversion outlets, dominated systematic sub‐daily fluctuations transport evasion (“carbopeaking”) Hydropower operational patterns regulation approaches affect response across temporal Our findings highlight considering all scales variations for accurate quantification understanding impacts, clarify role natural global carbon cycling.

Terrestrial nature-based climate solutions (NbCS) for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) are critical mitigating change. However, the arid climates characteristic of drylands (aridity index <0.65) often limit effectiveness many NbCS. At same time, cover approximately 45% global land area and threatened by soil degradation, necessitating deployment CDR methods that also promote health. Soil amendments with high CO 2 sorption capacity, such as biochar, could provide potential health benefits in provided they do not negatively impact large inorganic pools typical dryland soils. The dynamics therefore assessing response systems to sorbing amendments. To assess sorption, we developed a 1D reactive transport model unsaturated soils equilibrium dissolved calcite under varying respiration rates amendment application conditions. simulations highlight how alteration due biochar affects carbon, pH, Ca 2+ , calcite. transient conditions emerge, including delayed emissions respired emphasize need consider times monitoring campaigns based on measurements.

Abstract Inland waters emit significant amounts of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) to the atmosphere; however, global magnitude and source distribution inland water CO emissions remain uncertain. These fluxes have previously been “statistically upscaled” by independently estimating dissolved concentrations gas exchange velocities calculate fluxes. This scaling, while robust defensible, has known limitations in representing spatial variability. Here, we develop calibrate a transport model for continental United States, simulating transformation >22 million hydraulically connected rivers, lakes, reservoirs. We estimate 25% lower compared upscaling estimates forced same observational calibration data. While precise are limited resolution parameterizations, our suggests that stream corridor production dominates over groundwater inputs at scale. Our results further suggest lack networks scalable metabolic models aquatic most salient barriers coupling with other Earth system components.
