AGU Session: Carbon System Dynamics in Large River-Dominated Coastal Margins
Another AGU Session Invitation:
OS12: Carbon System Dynamics in Large River-Dominated Coastal Margins
Sponsor: Ocean Sciences
Description: Enhanced biological production in large river plumes can
contribute to an enhanced net surface influx of atmospheric CO2. However,
large rivers also deliver significant amounts of terrestrial carbon into
continental margin waters, and hence, the potential for large and variable
signals in carbon fluxes exists in these regions. This session will examine
rates of efflux and uptake of CO2 and factors regulating other aspects of
carbon dynamics in ocean margin ecosystems strongly influenced by large
river outflows.
