Understanding and quantifying the global methane (CH 4) budget is important for assessing
realistic pathways to mitigate climate change. Atmospheric emissions and concentrations of …

Observation of surface water is a functional requirement for studying ecological and
hydrological processes. Recent advances in satellite‐based optical remote sensors have …

To track progress towards keeping warming well below 2° C, as agreed upon in the Paris
Agreement, comprehensive and reliable information on anthropogenic sources of …

The global methane (CH 4) budget is becoming an increasingly important component for
managing realistic pathways to mitigate climate change. This relevance, due to a shorter …

As global temperatures rise, large amounts of carbon sequestered in permafrost are
becoming available for microbial degradation. Accurate prediction of carbon gas emissions …

Even though researchers have paid a great deal of attention to wetland loss and status, the
actual extent of wetland loss on a global scale, especially the loss caused directly by human …

Wetlands are important providers of ecosystem services and key regulators of climate
change. They positively contribute to global warming through their greenhouse gas …

Water-table drawdown across peatlands increases carbon dioxide (CO2) and reduces
methane (CH4) emissions. The net climatic effect remains unclear. Based on global …

Permafrost contains about 50% of the global soil carbon. It is thought that the thawing of
permafrost can lead to a loss of soil carbon in the form of methane and carbon dioxide …

Global wetlands are believed to be climate sensitive, and are the largest natural emitters of
methane (CH 4). Increased wetland CH 4 emissions could act as a positive feedback to …
