Carbon dynamics at the river–estuarine transition: a comparison among tributaries of Chesapeake Bay

<p>Sources and transformation of carbon (C) were quantified using mass balance and ecosystem metabolism data for the upper segments of the James, Pamunkey and Mattaponi estuaries. The goal was to assess the role of external (river inputs and tidal exchange) vs. internal (metabolism) drivers in...
