“…High temperatures amplified CH 4 emissions (Sepulveda‐Jauregui et al., ), which led to markedly higher amounts of CH 4 stored and emitted from the basins in the hotter summer of 2014 with a clear correlation between CH 4 emissions and temperature. Similar responses to regional temperature have been shown in ponds, in small shallow, and medium‐sized lakes (Bartosiewicz, Laurion, & Macintyre, ; Bartosiewicz et al., ; Encinas Fernández et al., ; Liikanen, Huttunen, Valli, & Martikainen, ; Miettinen et al., ; Natchimuthu et al., ; Room et al., ) and in enclosure experiments (Audet et al., ; Yvon‐Durocher et al., ), suggesting that in predicted warming scenarios, an increase in carbon greenhouse gas emissions can be expected in lake ecosystems regardless of DOC inputs and their biogeochemical effects in the water column (e.g., in stratification, temperature regimes, pH, microbial metabolism and CO 2 dynamics).…”
