“…Our GPP values were similar to other studies in the neighboring Cerrado region (<0.1-0.818 g m −2 d −1 ; [95,96]), the Peruvian Amazon (0.07-0.189 g m −2 d −1 ; [97]), and forested headwater tropical streams more broadly, which typically have very low or undetectable rates of GPP [9,92,93,98,99]. Rates of ER ranged from 0.1-11.9 g m −2 d −1 , which was similar to studies from the Cerrado (0.12-19.58 g m −2 d −1 ; [95,96,99], Amazon (1.8-15. Although we found no land use or seasonal differences in rates of GPP, it was more frequently measurable and, thus, higher in cropland streams than forested streams (Tables S7 and S8, Figure 5), similar to studies showing greater GPP in agricultural streams [92,100,101]. We measured lower rates of GPP than reported in streams where riparian forest cover was highly disturbed or absent, e.g., [92,93].…”
