The importance of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and methanogenic community to
methane (CH4) production in estuarine benthic sediments remains poorly understood. Here …

Freshwater reservoirs are an important source of the greenhouse gas methane (CH4) to the
atmosphere, but global emission estimates are poorly constrained (13.3–52.5 Tg C yr− 1) …

Although coastal sediments are major contributors to the production of atmospheric
methane, the effects of environmental conditions on methanogenesis and the community of …

Methane (CH 4) is an important atmospheric trace gas mostly released from wet anoxic soils
and sediments. While many studies have focused on relatively homogenous environments …

Sources of atmospheric CH4 are both naturally occurring and anthropogenic. In fact, some
anthropogenic activities may influence the production of CH4 from natural sources, such as …

Purpose Sediments are significant methane (CH 4) sources of the atmosphere. However,
the mechanisms of CH 4 generation remain unclear in sediments of shallow urban lakes …

Shallow lakes are an important natural source of atmospheric methane (CH 4), and the input
of autochthonous organic matter (OM) into their sediments encourages methanogenesis …

Coastal zones are transitional areas between land and sea where large amounts of organic
and inorganic carbon compounds are recycled by microbes. Especially shallow zones near …

Methane, a major greenhouse gas, plays an important role in global carbon cycling and
climate change. Methanogenesis is identified as an important process for methane formation …

Methane emissions from lakes and reservoirs are a major natural source in the global
budget of atmospheric CH4. A large fraction of these emissions are due to diffusive transport …
