Dissolved inorganic carbon input significantly lowers carbon dioxide flux but not methane flux in shallow macrophyte-dominated systems with positive effects on carbon stocks
The addition of HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup> enhanced carbon stocks in water, macrophytes and the entire system, with minimal effects on carbon sedimentation stocks. Our study provides valuable insights into understanding the carbon sink capacity of aquatic ecosystems and elucidates the underlying mechanisms driving these processes on a system scale.
