Water column methanotrophy controlled by a rapid oceanographic switch [PDF]

Nature Geoscience, 2015
Large amounts of the greenhouse gas methane are released from the seabed to the water column1, where it may be consumed by aerobic methanotrophic bacteria2. The size and activity of methanotrophic communities, which determine the amount of methane consumed in the water column, are thought to be mainly controlled by nutrient and redox dynamics3–7. Here,

Ecological Feedbacks in the Earth System

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Ecological feedbacks are fundamental features of the Earth system, affecting physical processes and chemical cycles. Our understanding of the interactions underlying these feedbacks at different spatial and temporal scales and the extent to which feedbacks affect Earth system functioning remains limited.

Evaluating the contribution of methanotrophy kinetics to uncertainty in the soil methane sink

Environmental Research Letters
The oxidation of atmospheric methane by soil microbes is an important natural sink for a potent greenhouse gas. However, estimates of the current and future soil methane sink are highly uncertain. Here we assessed the extent to which methanotrophy enzyme

Light rare earth element depletion during Deepwater Horizon blowout methanotrophy [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2017
AbstractRare earth elements have generally not been thought to have a biological role. However, recent work has demonstrated that the light REEs (LREEs: La, Ce, Pr, and Nd) are essential for at least some methanotrophs, being co-factors in the XoxF type of methanol dehydrogenase (MDH).

Aerobic methanotrophy increases the net iron reduction in methanogenic lake sediments

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
In methane (CH4) generating sediments, methane oxidation coupled with iron reduction was suggested to be catalyzed by archaea and bacterial methanotrophs of the order Methylococcales. However, the co-existence of these aerobic and anaerobic microbes, the link between the processes, and the oxygen requirement for the bacterial methanotrophs have ...

Hydrologic Variability Drives Differential Methane Dynamics in Agricultural Reservoirs of the Northern Great Plains

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Climate variability can regulate aquatic methane fluxes as increasing temperatures can elevate microbial metabolic rates, including methanogenesis. It is less well known how climate‐induced variability in seasonal precipitation and runoff might affect methane concentrations and fluxes in aquatic ecosystems.

Methane concentration and isotopic composition (d13C-CH4) in the Nerja Cave system (South Spain) [PDF]

, 2016
Air in underground caves often has methane (CH4) concentrations below the atmospheric level, due to methanotrophic or other unkown CH4 consuming processes. Caves are thus considered a potential sink for atmospheric methane.

Fruit function beyond dispersal: effect of fruit decomposition on the plant microbiome assembly

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1442-1455, February 2026.
Summary The evolutionary role of fruits has primarily been linked to seed dispersal. However, their influence on the soil and plant microbiomes subsequent to their decomposition has received no attention. We hypothesized that fruit decomposition alters the soil microbiome, and consequently the plant microbiome and performance.
