Methane is the final product of the anaerobic decomposition of organic matter. The
conversion of organic matter to methane (methanogenesis) as a mechanism for energy …

Tropical peatlands store around one-sixth of the global peatland carbon pool (105
gigatonnes), equivalent to 30% of the carbon held in rainforest vegetation. Deforestation …

Atmospheric concentrations of the powerful greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N 2 O) have
increased dramatically over the last 100 years, and part of these emissions come from …

Emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O) from the world's river networks constitute a poorly
constrained term in the global N2O budget,. This N2O component was previously estimated …

Soils serve as the biological sink of the potent greenhouse gas methane with exceptionally
low concentrations of∼ 1.84 ppmv in the atmosphere. The as-yet-uncultivated methane …

Understanding the effects of warming on greenhouse gas feedbacks to climate change
represents a major global challenge. Most research has focused on direct effects of …

International initiatives set ambitious targets for ecological restoration, which is considered a
promising greenhouse gas mitigation strategy. Here, we conduct a meta-analysis to quantify …

Flooding and desiccation of soil environments mainly affect the availability of water and
oxygen. While water is necessary for all life, oxygen is required for aerobic microorganisms …

Engineered and monitored sanitary landfills have been widespread in the United States
since the passage of the Clean Water Act (1972) with additional controls under RCRA …

Soil-borne nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions have a high spatial and temporal variability which
is commonly attributed to the occurrence of hotspots and hot moments for microbial activity …
