Methane-utilizing bacteria (methanotrophs) are a diverse group of gram-negative bacteria
that are related to other members of the Proteobacteria. These bacteria are classified into …

Smart cropland management practices can mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions while
safeguarding food security. However, the integrated effects on net greenhouse gas budget …

For the past 3.8 billion years, the geochemistry of the Earth's surface-its atmosphere, waters
and exposed crust-has been determined by the presence of biota. Photosynthetic organisms …

Methane emission by soils results from antagonistic but correlated microbial activities.
Methane is produced in the anaerobic zones of submerged soils by methanogens and is …

Flooded rice systems emit both methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O). Elevated CH4
emissions in rice systems can lead to a high global warming potential (GWP) relative to …

Methane and N 2 O emissions affected by nitrogen fertilisers were measured simultaneously
in rice paddy fields under intermittent irrigation in 1994. Ammonium sulphate and urea were …

Rice agriculture feeds about a third of the world's population. However, rice fields are also
an important source in the global budget of the greenhouse gas methane. The emission of …

WETLANDS, both natural and agricultural, contribute an estimated 40 to 50% of the total
methane emitted to the atmosphere each year. Recent efforts in atmospheric modelling1 …

The geographic and seasonal emission distributions of the major sources and sinks of
atmospheric methane were compiled using methane flux measurements and energy and …
