Identifying thermogenic and microbial methane in deep water Gulf of Mexico Reservoirs [PDF]
, 2020 The Gulf of Mexico (GOM) produces 5% of total U.S. dry gas production (USEIA, 2016). Despite this, the proportion of microbial and thermogenic methane in discovered and producing fields from this area is still not well understood.

PLoS Biology, 2004 Methanotrophs are ubiquitous bacteria that can use the greenhouse gas methane as a sole carbon and energy source for growth, thus playing major roles in global carbon cycles, and in particular, substantially reducing emissions of biologically generated ...

Phototrophic Methane Oxidation in a Member of the Chloroflexi Phylum [PDF]
, 2019 Biological methane cycling plays an important role in Earth's climate and the global carbon cycle, with biological methane oxidation (methanotrophy) modulating methane release from numerous environments including soils, sediments, and water columns ...

Direct isotopic evidence of biogenic methane production and efflux from beneath a temperate glacier [PDF]
The base of glaciers and ice sheets provide environments suitable for the production of methane. High pressure conditions beneath the impermeable ‘cap’ of overlying ice promote entrapment of methane reserves that can be released to the atmosphere during ...

Methane stimulates massive nitrogen loss from freshwater reservoirs in India
Nature Communications, 2018 The fate of anthropogenic nitrogen (N) remains understudied in South Asian water bodies despite its impact on water chemistry and quality. Here the authors show that N loss in Indian freshwater reservoirs is tightly coupled to methanotrophy, which has ...

Methanotrophy potential versus methane supply by pore water diffusion in peatlands [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2009 Low affinity methanotrophic bacteria consume a significant quantity of methane in wetland soils in the vicinity of plant roots and at the oxic-anoxic interface.

Methanotrophy in Movile Cave [PDF]
Movile Cave is an isolated cave ecosystem that receives no input of photosynthetically fixed carbon. Instead, carbon is primarily fixed through light- independent bacterial processes such as chemolithoautotrophy and methanotrophy. Distinctive microbial floating mats appear at the surface of groundwater flooding the cave, at the redox interface between ...

Greenhouse Gas Emissions Over a Tidal Cycle in a Freshwater Wetland [PDF]
, 2016 Tidal freshwater wetlands are located at the interface of non-tidal freshwater riverine systems and estuarine tidal systems. These habitats experience freshwater tides, creating unique redoximorphic soil characteristics while simultaneously presenting an
