Thermophilic methanotrophs: in hot pursuit
ABSTRACTMethane is a potent greenhouse gas responsible for 20–30% of global climate change effects. The global methane budget is ∼500–600 Tg y−1, with the majority of methane produced via microbial processes, including anthropogenic-mediated sources such as ruminant animals, rice fields, sewage treatment facilities and landfills.

Mutagenesis and expression of methane monooxygenase to alter regioselectivity with aromatic substrates [PDF]
Soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO) from methane-oxidising bacteria can oxygenate more than 100 hydrocarbons and is one of the most catalytically versatile biological oxidation catalysts.

Abstract Mountain hay meadows are a high‐elevation forage‐producing agroecosystem dependent on flood irrigation and nitrogen (N) fertilization to maintain yields, meaning management has great potential to influence greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. To assess GHG fluxes and inorganic N dynamics in meadows, field monitoring was established at four ranches ...

Land Cover and Hydrology Regulate Riverine Carbon Emissions From Subarctic Catchments
Abstract Streams transport carbon (C) and nutrients across the terrestrial‐aquatic interface and are significant sources of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) to the atmosphere. Climate‐induced changes in vegetation and hydrology increase the export of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from terrestrial to aquatic ecosystems, but the impact of these ...

Niche differentiation in nitrogen metabolism among methanotrophs within an operational taxonomic unit [PDF]
Background: The currently accepted thesis on nitrogenous fertilizer additions on methane oxidation activity assumes niche partitioning among methanotrophic species, with activity responses to changes in nitrogen content being dependent on the in situ ...

Millimetre‐Scale Stratification of Microbial Communities in Hydrothermal Sediments
Zooming into the millimetre‐scale spatial distribution of organic molecules in hydrothermally impacted sediments using mass spectrometry imaging reveals a distinct lipid zonation with abrupt transitions at critical redox interfaces. This zonation reflects a pronounced stratification of diverse microbial communities and highlights surprisingly ...

Nitrification-denitrification in WSP: a mechanism for permanent nitrogen removal in maturation ponds [PDF]
A pilot-scale primary maturation pond was spiked with 15N-labelled ammonia (15NH4Cl) and 15N labelled nitrite (Na15NO2), in order to improve current understanding of the dynamics of inorganic nitrogen transformations and removal in WSP systems.

Greenhouse gases (GHGs) resulting from human activities significantly impact crop production and agricultural sustainability, necessitating innovative solutions to mitigate their effects. One promising approach is employing biochar for GHG mitigation, providing a potential means to offset emissions and enhance crop productivity sustainably.
