Methane emissions from western Siberian wetlands: heterogeneity and sensitivity to climate change
The prediction of methane emissions from high-latitude wetlands is important given concerns about their sensitivity to a warming climate. As a basis for the prediction of wetland methane emissions at regional scales, we coupled the variable infiltration capacity macroscale hydrological model (VIC) with the biosphere–energy-transfer–hydrology terrestrial ecosystem model (BETHY) and a wetland met...
متن کاملGammaproteobacterial methanotrophs dominate cold methane seeps in floodplains of West Siberian rivers.
A complex system of muddy fluid-discharging and methane (CH4)-releasing seeps was discovered in a valley of the river Mukhrinskaya, one of the small rivers of the Irtysh Basin, West Siberia. CH4 flux from most (90%) of these gas ebullition sites did not exceed 1.45 g CH4 h(-1), while some seeps emitted up to 5.54 g CH4 h(-1). The δ(13)C value of methane released from these seeps varied between ...
متن کاملMethane emissions from two tundra wetlands in eastern Antarctica
During the summertime of 2005/2006 net methane ðCH4Þ fluxes and environmental variables were investigated in two tundra wetlands Wolong Marsh and Tuanjie Marsh of eastern Antarctica, using the closed chamber technique. At Wolong Marsh, the measurements were made at four wet tundra sites, four mesic tundra sites, and two dry sites. CH4 flux for wet tundra sites averaged 163:4mgm 2 h 1 and for th...
متن کاملInfluence of atmospheric circulation patterns on dust transport during Harmattan Period in West Africa
This study has used TOMS AI as well as the reanalysis dataset of thirty-four years (1979-2012) to investigate the influence of atmospheric circulation on dust transport during the Harmattan period in West Africa, using Aerosol Index (AI) data, obtained from various satellite sensors. Changes in Inter-Tropical Discontinuity (ITD), Sea Surface Temperature (SST) over the Gulf of Guinea, and North ...
متن کاملA large increase in U.S. methane emissions over the past decade inferred from satellite data and surface observations
The global burden of atmospheric methane has been increasing over the past decade, but the causes are not well understood. National inventory estimates from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency indicate no significant trend in U.S. anthropogenic methane emissions from 2002 to present. Here we use satellite retrievals and surface observations of atmospheric methane to suggest that U.S. metha...
