In a time when an unquestionable link between anthropogenic
emissions of greenhouse gases and climatic changes has finally been
acknowledged and * widely documented through IPCC reports, the need
for precise estimates of greenhouse gas (GHG) production rates and
emissions from natural as well as managed ecosystems has risen to a
critical level. Future agreements between nations concerning the
reduction of their GHG emissions will - pend upon precise estimates
of the present level of these emissions in both natural and managed
terrestrial and aquatic environments. From this viewpoint, the
present volume should prove to a benchmark contribution because it
provides very carefully assessed values for GHG emissions or
exchanges between critical climatic zones in aquatic en- ronments
and the atmosphere. It also provides unique information on the
biases of different measurement methods that may account for some
of the contradictory results that have been published recently in
the literature on this subject. Not only has a large array of
current measurement methods been tested concurrently here, but a
few new approaches have also been developed, notably laser
measurements of atmospheric CO concentration 2 gradients. Another
highly useful feature of this book is the addition of - nitoring
and process studies as well as modeling.
