Understanding and quantifying the global methane (CH 4) budget is important for assessing
realistic pathways to mitigate climate change. Atmospheric emissions and concentrations of …

The global methane (CH 4) budget is becoming an increasingly important component for
managing realistic pathways to mitigate climate change. This relevance, due to a shorter …

Arctic terrestrial ecosystems are major global sources of methane (CH4); hence, it is
important to understand the seasonal and climatic controls on CH4 emissions from these …

Methane emissions from boreal and arctic wetlands, lakes, and rivers are expected to
increase in response to warming and associated permafrost thaw. However, the lack of …

Peatlands store large amounts of soil carbon and freshwater, constituting an important
component of the global carbon and hydrologic cycles. Accurate information on the global …

Methane emissions from organic-rich soils in the Arctic have been extensively studied due to
their potential to increase the atmospheric methane burden as permafrost thaws,–. However …

Increasing atmospheric methane (CH 4) concentrations have contributed to approximately
20% of anthropogenic climate change. Despite the importance of CH 4 as a greenhouse …

Seasonal and interannual variations in global wetland area are a strong driver of
fluctuations in global methane (CH 4) emissions. Current maps of global wetland extent vary …

The recent rise in atmospheric methane (CH4) concentrations accelerates climate change
and offsets mitigation efforts. Although wetlands are the largest natural CH4 source …

The sensitivity of Earth's wetlands to observed shifts in global precipitation and temperature
patterns and their ability to produce large quantities of methane gas are key global change …
