Near-bed stratification controls bottom hypoxia in ice-covered alpine lakes

Damien Bouffard, Pascal Perolo, Tomy Doda, Nicolas Thomas Georges Escoffier, Janine Rüegg, Hannah Elisa Chmiel, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Camille Roland Marie Minaudo

In ice-covered lakes, near-bottom oxygen concentration decreases for most of the wintertime, sometimes down to the point that bottom waters become hypoxic. Studies insofar have reached divergent conclusions on whether climate change limits or reinforces th ...

Glacier retreat changes diurnal variation intensity and frequency of hydrologic variables in Alpine and Andean streams

Tom Ian Battin, Nicolas Thomas Georges Escoffier, Asa Lovisa Viktoria Horgby, Marta Boix Canadell

The impacts of glacier mass and area loss are assumed to affect stream hydrology and related ecosystems. We applied wavelet analysis to high frequency time series of discharge, conductivity, turbidity, air and water temperature in mountain streams influenc ...

Dynamics and potential drivers of CO2 concentration and evasion across temporal scales in high-alpine streams

Tom Ian Battin, Nicolas Thomas Georges Escoffier, Asa Lovisa Viktoria Horgby, Luis Gómez Gener

Carbon dioxide (CO2) evasion from streams greatly contributes to global carbon fluxes. Despite this, the temporal dynamics of CO2 and its drivers remain poorly understood to date. This is particularly true for high-altitude streams. Using high-resolution t ...

Alpine Glacier Shrinkage Drives Shift in Dissolved Organic Carbon Export From Quasi‐Chemostasis to Transport Limitation

Tom Ian Battin, Amber Joy Ulseth, Nicolas Thomas Georges Escoffier, Marta Boix Canadell

The export of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from catchments is considered as an important energy flux through streams and a major connection between terrestrial and aquatic systems. However, the impact that predicted hydrological changes due to glacier re ...

Carbon fate in a large temperate human-impacted river system: Focus on benthic dynamics

Nicolas Thomas Georges Escoffier

Fluvial networks play an important role in regional and global carbon (C) budgets. The Seine River, from the Paris urban area to the entrance of its estuary (220km), is studied here as an example of a large human-impacted river system subject to temperate ...
