Surface carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions exhibit a high degree of spatial heterogeneity in the young boreal Eastmain-1 hydroelectric reservoir, located in northern Quebec, Canada. Estimates of the individual components of net CO 2 production within the reservoir (benthic respiration, water column re...
