• Seasonal variability of sea surface pCO2 and air-sea CO2 flux in a high turbidity coastal ocean in the vicinity of the East China Sea (2025) · Frontiers in Marine Science · cited 4× · doi

  Further studies are needed to quantify the air-sea CO2 fluxes in coastal estuarine systems, - Research should focus on the complex interactions among terrestrial, riverine, and anthropogenic factors, - Studies should investigate the extreme spatiotemporal variability in pCO2 and air-sea CO2 flux

• CO2 and CH4 Emissions from Two Maar Crater Lakes (São Miguel, Azores) (2026) · Environments · doi

  Further studies are needed to investigate the effects of other factors on CO2 and CH4 emissions from lakes. The study of other lakes with different physico-chemical conditions could provide more insights into the carbon cycling patterns. The development of new methods for measuring CO2 and CH4 emissions from lakes could improve the accuracy of the results.
