    Abstract : Methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) are two greenhouse gases and main drivers of global climate change. Lakes are known to be a source of CH4 and CO2 to the atmosphere. While the importance of these emissions is clear, their magnitudes and regulation are still uncertain due to the scarcity of flux measurement data from lakes. READ MORE

  5. 19. Local Carbon Budgets as a Governance Tool for Sustainability Transitions : A Case Study from Västra Götaland
