A comparison of methods for the measurement of CO2 and CH4 emissions from surface water reservoirs: Results from an international workshop held at Three Gorges Dam, June 2012
Fluxes of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) from hydroelectric and water supply reservoirs are
receiving increasing attention around the world with a number of research groups having undertaken measurements
of these emissions across a range of lakes and reservoirs located in different climates and landscapes.
The use of floating chambers (aka flux chambers) is the most common technique for direct
measurement of these fluxes. However, the relative performance of different measurement systems, especially
