Methanotrophs oxidize methane (CH4) and greatly help in mitigating greenhouse effect.
Increased temperatures due to global climate change can facilitate lake salinization …

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas; methane production and consumption within seafloor
sediments has generated intense interest. Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) and …

Methanotrophs are the main consumers of methane produced in lake sediments. In shallow
lakes suffering from eutrophication, methanogenesis is accelerated by the excess organic …

Aerobic methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) play a crucial role in mitigating the methane
emission from lake ecosystems to the atmosphere. However, the distribution of …

Marine surface sediments, which are replete with sulfate, are typically considered to be
devoid of endogenous methanogenesis. Yet, methanogenic archaea are present in those …

Methanogen populations of an intertidal mudflat in the Yangtze River estuary of China were
investigated based on the methyl coenzyme M reductase A (mcrA) gene using 454 …

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

The release of abiotic methane from marine seeps into the atmosphere is a major source of
this potent greenhouse gas. Methanotrophic microorganisms in methane seeps use …

In the northern South China Sea (SCS) we explored methane dynamics in the water column
during SONNE-cruise SO266 in October/November 2018. Two depth zones contained …

Lake Pavin is a meromictic crater lake located in the French Massif Central area. In this
ecosystem, most methane (CH4) produced in high quantity in the anoxic bottom layers, and …
