Methane availability in freshwaters is usually associated with spatial-temporal variation in
methanogenesis. Unusually, however, natural gas macro-seeps occur along the Condamine …

Assessing the diverse communities of methanogenic Archaea and sulfate-reducing bacteria
(SRB) is important to understand methane (CH 4) production in wetland ecosystems …

Microbial methanogenesis in sediment plays a crucial role in CH 4 emission from freshwater
lake ecosystems. However, knowledge of the layer-depth-related changes of methanogen …

Microbial production of methane is an important terminal metabolic process during organic
matter degradation in marine sediments. It is generally acknowledged that hydrogenotrophic …

Cold seeps are globally widespread seafloor ecosystems that feature abundant methane
production and flourishing chemotrophic benthic communities. Chemical evidence indicates …

Salinity is an important environmental control of aerobic methane oxidation, which reduces
the emission of the potent greenhouse gas methane into the atmosphere. The effect of …

Microbial methanogenesis in the subsurface seafloor is responsible for the formation of
large and dynamic gas reservoirs like the recently discovered gas hydrate deposits. Gas …

River T yne (UK) estuarine sediments harbour a genetically and functionally diverse
community of methane‐oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs), the composition and activity of …

Large amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, are produced in anoxic sediments by
methanogenic archaea. Nonetheless, over 90% of the produced methane is oxidized via …

Freshwater lakes, especially eutrophic ones, have become a hotspot of methanogenesis.
However, the effects of eutrophication and seasonality on methanogenesis activity and …
