Hierarchical microbial distribution organized by ordered river structure explains why GHG emission favors small streams

In river networks, small streams usually emit the largest proportion of greenhouse-gases (GHGs). However, the associated microbial mechanisms affected by the hierarchy of river systems are unclear. To address this, we measured N 2 O, CH 4 and CO 2 fluxes at 22 sites selected from...
