Wetlands are the largest and most uncertain biological source of atmospheric methane, with hydrological fluctuations exacerbating this uncertainty. Here we critically explore complex relationship between methane emissions in wetlands by integrating observations from 31 FLUXNET wetland sites a comprehensive literature review. We present prevalence patterns water table their contribution to uncertainty fluxes. also highlight key pathways through which these affect production emission, such as soil redox heterogeneity, changes substrate availability alternative electron acceptor pool, different transport pathways, non-linear responses community structure activity methanogens methanotrophs fluctuations.

Abstract Abiotic CH 4 production driven by Fenton‐type reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been confirmed to be an indispensable component of the atmospheric budget. While chemical reactions independent Fenton chemistry ROS are ubiquitous in nature, it remains unknown whether produced can drive abiotic production. Here, we first demonstrated at soil‐water interface under illumination. Leveraging this finding, polymeric carbon nitrides (CN x ) as a typical analogue natural geobattery material and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) methyl donor were used unravel underlying mechanisms. We revealed that ROS, photocatalytically CN , oxidize DMSO into with high selectivity 91.5 %. Such process was further expanded various non‐Fenton‐type reaction systems, such electrocatalysis, pyrocatalysis sonocatalysis. This work provides insights geochemical cycle offers new route via integrated energy development.

Abstract Accumulating evidences are challenging the paradigm that methane in surface water primarily stems from anaerobic transformation of organic matters. Yet, contribution oxygenic photosynthetic bacteria, a dominant species water, to production remains unclear. Here we show methanogenesis triggered by interaction between bacteria and methanogenic archaea. By introducing cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC6803 archaea Methanosarcina barkeri with redox cycling iron, CH 4 was induced coculture biofilms through both syntrophic (under anoxic conditions darkness) abiotic oxic illumination) during periodic dark-light cycles. We have further demonstrated other model various phyla, conjunction different exhibiting diverse energy conservation modes, as well common Fe-species. These findings revealed an unexpected link photosynthesis would advance our understanding bacteria’s ecological role global cycle. Such light-driven may be widely present nature.

Abstract. Due to ongoing climate change, methane (CH4) emissions from vegetated wetlands are projected increase during the 21st century, challenging mitigation efforts aimed at limiting global warming. However, despite reports of rising emission trends, a comprehensive evaluation and attribution recent changes is still lacking. Here we assessed wetland CH4 2000 2020 based on an ensemble sixteen process-based models. Our results estimated average 158±24 (mean ± 1σ) Tg yr-1 for period 2010–2020, with decadal 6–7 compared decade 2000–2009. The increases in four latitudinal bands 90° S–30° S, 30° N, N–60° 60° N–90° N were 0.1–0.2 yr-1, 3.6–3.7 1.8–2.4 0.6–0.8 respectively, over two decades. modeled sensitivities temperature show reasonable consistency eddy covariance-based measurements 34 sites.
