Is it stochastic? Chaoborus larvae bioturbation likely affect the timing of daily methane (CH4) ebullitive flux in a tropical reservoir

MP Bezerra, DF McGinnis, JF Bezerra-Neto… - Hydrobiologia, 2020 - Springer
Controlling factors of CH 4 ebullitive flux are still poorly understood within daily timescales in
