Recent intensification of wetland methane feedback
The positive response of wetland methane (CH4) emissions to climate change is an
important yet uncertain Earth-system feedback that amplifies atmospheric CH4 …

Wetland hydrological dynamics and methane emissions
Wetlands are the largest and most uncertain biological source of atmospheric methane, with
hydrological fluctuations exacerbating this uncertainty. Here we critically explore the …

Trends in atmospheric methane concentrations since 1990 were driven and modified by anthropogenic emissions
The atmospheric methane trend is not fully understood. Here we investigate the role of the
main sink, the main natural source, and anthropogenic emissions on the methane growth …

Inverse modeling of 2010–2022 satellite observations shows that inundation of the wet tropics drove the 2020–2022 methane surge
Atmospheric methane concentrations rose rapidly over the past decade and surged in 2020–
2022 but the causes have been unclear. We find from inverse analysis of GOSAT satellite …

Fate of methane in canals draining tropical peatlands
Tropical wetlands and freshwaters are major contributors to the growing atmospheric
methane (CH4) burden. Extensive peatland drainage has lowered CH4 emissions from peat …

Methane emissions decreased in fossil fuel exploitation and sustainably increased in microbial source sectors during 1990–2020
Methane (CH4) emission reduction to limit warming to 1.5° C can be tracked by analyzing
CH4 concentration and its isotopic composition (δ 13C, δ D) simultaneously. Based on …
