Aim Although running waters are getting recognized as important methane sources, large‐
scale geographical patterns of microorganisms controlling the net methane balance of …

Eutrophication is expected to increase methane production in freshwater sediments
worldwide over the coming decades. Methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) consume a …

Methanogenic archaea produce methane as a metabolic product under anoxic conditions
and they play a crucial role in the global methane cycle. In this study molecular diversity of …

Urbanised environments have been identified as hotspots of anthropogenic methane
emissions. Especially urban aquatic ecosystems are increasingly recognised as important …

Studies on methanogenesis from freshwater sediments have so far primarily focused on lake
sediments. To expand our knowledge on the community composition of methanogenic …

Aerobic methanotrophic bacteria (methanotrophs) use methane as a source of carbon and
energy, thereby mitigating net methane emissions from natural sources. Methanotrophs …

The potential and drivers of microbial methane removal in the water column of seasonally
stratified coastal ecosystems and the importance of the methanotrophic community …

Understanding temporal and spatial microbial community abundance and diversity
variations is necessary to assess the functional roles played by microbial actors in the …

Anoxic soils in river floodplains (or riparian soils) are a source of methane emission.
However, little is known about the ecology and community structure of archaeal …

Distribution of microbial activity, methanogenic archaea and type I and II methanotrophs
were studied in a small lowland stream Sitka in Czech Republic. The methanogens and …
