Carbon-neutral biofuel from lakes
Lakes store huge amounts of methane. In a new study, environmental scientists at the University of Basel offer suggestions for how it can be extracted and used as an energy source in the form...

Climate change is impacting not only the oceans, but also large inland lakes, as scientists call for more attention to regions with falling water levels. Climate change is impacting not only the oceans, but also...
Nature’s own UV suncreens could be used in the development of more natural sun protection formulations. The compounds used to protect organisms in oceans and lakes increase where UV levels are high. Swansea University...
Freshwater is vital to human survival. York University researchers have now created a public water quality database for some 12,000 freshwater lakes globally – almost half of the world’s freshwater supply – that will...
A world-first system can help better predict the future warming of the world’s lakes due to climate change. It highlights the potential threat to cold-water fish species such as salmon and trout. Pioneering research...
An international team of researchers has identified an unusual pathway that predominantly facilitates loss of reactive nitrogen from freshwater lake waters, according to the results of a collaborative study now published in the journal...
