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.

Abstract While wetlands represent a small fraction (~5%–10%) of the world's land surface, it is estimated that one‐third of wetlands have been lost due to human activities. Wetland habitat loss decreases ecosystem benefits, including improved water quality and climate change mitigation.

Draft genome sequence of Methyloferula stellata AR4, an obligate methanotroph possessing only a soluble methane monooxygenase [PDF]
Methyloferula stellata AR4 is an aerobic acidophilic methanotroph, which, in contrast to most known methanotrophs but similar to Methylocella spp., possesses only a soluble methane monooxygenase. However, it differs from Methylocella spp.

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.

Abstract Tropical hydroelectric reservoirs are recognized hotspots for greenhouse gas emissions, yet the role of submerged forests in these emissions remains poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the contribution of standing dead trees and their associated epixylic biofilms to methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the ...

Novel copper-containing membrane monooxygenases (CuMMOs) encoded by alkane-utilizing Betaproteobacteria. [PDF]
Copper-containing membrane monooxygenases (CuMMOs) are encoded by xmoCAB(D) gene clusters and catalyze the oxidation of methane, ammonia, or some short-chain alkanes and alkenes.

Abstract The role of biochar in mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from tropical soils, especially when combined with compost, is still not adequately researched. This study evaluated the effects of oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) biochar applied at 10 and 20 t ha−1 (B10 and B20), compost at 20 t ha−1 (CP20) and in combination (B10CP20 and ...

Aquatic environments account for half of global CH4 emissions, with freshwater wetlands being the most significant contributors. These CH4 fluxes can be partially offset by aerobic CH4 oxidation driven by methanotrophs.

A Temporally Consistent Spatial Gradient in Methane Ebullition From a Eutrophic Lake
Abstract Gas bubble emission (ebullition) from lake sediment is a prominent source of the greenhouse gas methane (CH4) to the atmosphere, but the stochastic nature of bubble release and thus high variability in space and time makes the estimation of lake CH4 ebullition challenging.
