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

Microbes play a crucial role in mediating the methane flux in deep-sea cold seep
ecosystems, where only methane-related microbes have been well studied, while the whole …

Cold seeps are highly productive chemosynthetic ecosystems in the deep-sea environment.
Although microbial communities affected by methane seepage have been extensively …

Biological methanogenesis is linked to permanent water logged systems, eg, rice field soils
or lake sediments. In these systems the methanogenic community as well as the pathway of …

Methane release rates from the sediment in the lake were estimated by a batch culture. The
methane release rates were decreased from 6.1±0.7 mgCH4-m− 2-h− 1 at top 5 cm depth to …

Lakes represent a considerable natural source of methane to the atmosphere compared to
their small global surface area. Methanotrophs in sediments and in the water column largely …

Atmospheric nitrogen deposition caused by human activities has been receiving much
attention. Here, after long-term simulated ammonium and nitrate nitrogen deposition (NH 4 …

Methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) present in the water column mitigate methane (CH 4)
emissions from hydropower complexes to the atmosphere. By creating a discontinuity in …

Methane (CH4) flux from ecosystems is driven by C1-cycling microorganisms–the
methanogens and the methylotrophs. Little is understood about what regulates these …

Methanogenesis is a key process in carbon cycling in lacustrine ecosystems. Knowledge of
the methanogenic pathway is important for creating mechanistic models as well as …
