Role of Megafauna and Frozen Soil in the Atmospheric CH4 Dynamics
Modern wetlands are the world's strongest methane source. But what was the role of this source in the past? An analysis of global 14C data for basal peat combined with modelling of wetland succession allowed us to reconstruct the dynamics of global wetland methane emission through time. These data show that the rise of atmospheric methane concentrations during the Pleistocene-Holocene transitio...
متن کاملKinetics of CH4 oxidation in mixed culture.
Microbial cultures used for methane oxidation experiments were prepared by enriching under a 20 % CH4 atmosphere either leachate extracts from two different landfill sites or a digested sewage sludge. No microbes were axenically isolated, therefore the cultures were mixtures of CH4 oxidising and other aerobic microorganisms. CH4 oxidation experiments were carried out with a batch reactor, whose...
متن کاملLandscape patterns of CH4 fluxes in an alpine tundra ecosystem
We measured CH4 fluxes from three major plant communities characteristic of alpine tundra in the Colorado Front Range. Plant communities in this ecosystem are determined by soil moisture regimes induced by winter snowpack distribution. Spatial patterns of CH4 flux during the snow-free season corresponded roughly with these plant communities. In Carex-dominated meadows, which receive the most mo...
