Eutrophication and ice phenology influence methane storage in north temperate lakes

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Among lakes, eutrophication is positively related to methane emissions, but various processes can alter the seasonal conversion of primary production into stored methane. We used a series of whole‐lake enrichment and shading experiments across three years with varying ice phenology to assess how eutrophication and ice cover affect within‐year ...

The (d)evolution of methanotrophy in the Beijerinckiaceae—a comparative genomics analysis [PDF]

The ISME Journal, 2013
Abstract The alphaproteobacterial family Beijerinckiaceae contains generalists that grow on a wide range of substrates, and specialists that grow only on methane and methanol. We investigated the evolution of this family by comparing the genomes of the generalist organotroph Beijerinckia indica, the facultative methanotroph Methylocella ...

Ecosystem‐Scale Methane Emissions From Peatlands of the Hudson Bay Lowlands

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Northern peatlands are important sources of methane (CH4) in the atmosphere. However, the magnitude of CH4 emissions and their response to environmental factors are poorly constrained within the Hudson Bay Lowlands (HBL), the largest contiguous peatland complex in North America. This study investigated seasonal (April–November) eddy covariance‐

Restoration of forestry‐drained oligotrophic peatlands can bring climate change mitigation within a few decades

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction Climate mitigation by peatland restoration is suggested, but data from restored forestry‐drained peatlands (FDP) is sparse. Studies using surrogate emission factors from pristine peatlands have indicated a long‐lasting warming effect of restoration of nutrient‐poor FDPs, while restoration‐specific studies are missing.

Methane‐limited methanotrophy in tidal freshwater swamps [PDF]

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, 2002
We investigated the relationship between CH4 production and oxidation in two tidal freshwater wetland forests in order to determine whether CH4 oxidation efficiency was limited by O2 or CH4. Methane oxidation was measured in situ over a 16‐month period with bi‐monthly applications of the inhibitor CH3F.

Using Radon (222Rn) to Trace Variability in Greenhouse Gas Emission From Tree Stems Across Species, Seasons and Stem Heights

Ecohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 3, April/May 2026.
ABSTRACT Emissions from trees are an important component of the global methane (CH4) cycle, but their spatial origins (soil vs. in‐stem), transport pathways and environmental influences are not well constrained. To address these issues, this field study characterized spatial and temporal variability in stem emissions of biologically inert radon (222Rn),

Radiocarbon analysis reveals the contribution of aged terrestrial carbon to sedimentary methane cycling

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Methane (CH4) production in lacustrine sediments is known to be spatially heterogeneous, varying both horizontally and vertically. Porewater methane concentrations often differ between locations within a lake and with depth within the sediment profile. The drivers of this heterogeneity are often not well understood.

Bridging the Gap From Peat to Ponds: Terrestrial and Aquatic Greenhouse Gas Emissions in an Evolving Permafrost‐Associated Subarctic Peatland

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Rapid permafrost thaw in peatlands transforms the subarctic landscape into a mosaic of ponds and peat soil, varying in moisture, carbon and nutrients, and time since thaw. As subarctic permafrost degrades, ponds emerge and mature and can gradually infill with Sphagnum peat.

Hydrologic History Regulates Microbial Biofilm Diversity and Ecosystem Function

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 4, April 2026.
Hydrologic history regulates microbial biofilm diversity and ecosystem function. Historical flooding, but not drought, led to broad changes in composition and functional genes. ABSTRACT Aquatic biofilms are an understudied component of northern peatlands and are expected to play a more prominent role in ecosystem processes in areas where aquatic ...
