| Title | Carbon Sinks and Sources in Great Salt Lake: Consequences of Declining Lake Levels |
| Creator | Arias, Melissa Cobo |
| Description | Globally, saline lakes are experiencing declining water level as a consequence of climate change, water diversions for human consumption, and management strategies that do not account for changing climate and drought conditions. Great Salt Lake (GSL) is a large saline lake in Utah, USA, and is, as most saline lakes, experiencing decreasing lake levels which may impact local carbon cycling. It is unknown how lakebed drying affects processes that control carbon sequestration and carbon... |
