Responses of methanogenic and methanotrophic communities to elevated atmospheric CO2 and temperature in a paddy field

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Although climate change is predicted to affect methane (CH4) emissions in paddy soil, the dynamics of methanogens and methanotrophs in paddy fields under climate change have not yet been fully investigated.

Bioinspired Copper Sites for the Transformations of Greenhouse Gases Like Methane and Nitrous Oxide

Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society, Volume 73, Issue 9, Page 1262-1277, September 2026.
This review highlights the bioinspired catalytic systems containing copper sites that facilitate the conversions of methane and nitrous oxide to methanol and nitrogen, respectively. ABSTRACT The quest for benign catalysts for environmental remediation under ambient conditions for a sustainable future is fueling contemporary research.

Role of methanotrophy in a high‐methane emitting thermokarst lake

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Thermokarst (thaw) lakes are projected to be an increasing source of atmospheric methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse gas, as climate warms and permafrost thaws. However, the magnitude of CH4 cycling, particularly the role of aerobic CH4 oxidation (methanotrophy), among thermokarst lakes, is not well constrained.

Biotic interactions in microbial communities as modulators of biogeochemical processes: Methanotrophy as a model system.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Microbial interaction is an integral component of microbial ecology studies, yet the role, extent, and relevance of microbial interaction in community functioning remains unclear, particularly in the context of global biogeochemical cycles.

Thermophilic methane oxidation is widespread in Aotearoa-New Zealand geothermal fields

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Geothermal areas represent substantial point sources for greenhouse gas emissions such as methane. While it is known that methanotrophic microorganisms act as a biofilter, decreasing the efflux of methane in most soils to the atmosphere, the diversity ...

Higher methanotroph abundance and bottom‐water methane in ponds with floating photovoltaic arrays

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract Floating photovoltaic (FPV) arrays alter the methane (CH4) cycling dynamics of waterbodies on which they are deployed. Here, we investigated dissolved CH4 dynamics and associated CH4 cycling microbial communities (methanogens and methanotrophs) in the 2nd year of FPV deployment (70% aerial coverage) in experimental ponds.

The fate of methane in ponds: Drivers of production, storage, oxidation, and emissions

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract Ponds are disproportionately large contributors to global carbon cycling, with substantial but variable emissions of methane (CH4) to the atmosphere relative to their global surface area. Efforts to upscale pond CH4 emissions have focused on broad‐scale correlates of emissions, yet mechanisms underlying the variability in emissions remain ...

Thermophilic methanotrophs: in hot pursuit

FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2019
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.

Activity and abundance of methane-oxidizing bacteria in secondary forest and manioc plantations of Amazonian Dark Earth and their adjacent soils

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
The oxidation of atmospheric CH4 in upland soils is mostly mediated by uncultivated groups of microorganisms that have been identified solely by molecular markers, such as the sequence of the pmoA gene encoding the β-subunit of the particulate methane ...

Seasonal and Interannual Variations in Methane Emissions and Carbon and Hydrogen Isotopes From an Upland Ombrotrophic Peat Bog

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Despite their importance for global CH4 biogeochemistry, there is limited evidence on seasonal patterns in CH4 stable isotope composition from peatlands. We conducted a 2.5‐year study investigating seasonal changes in CH4 fluxes and dual‐stable isotopes (δ13C, δ2H) in an ombrotrophic peat bog in Northern England.
