Abstract Climate changes significantly impact greenhouse gas emissions from wetland soil. Specifically, soil may be exposed to oxygen (O 2 ) during droughts, or sulfate (SO 4 2- as a result of sea level rise. How these stressors – separately and together microbial food webs driving carbon cycling in the wetlands is still not understood. To investigate this, we integrated geochemical analysis, proteogenomics, stoichiometric modeling characterize elevated SO O levels on methane (CH dioxide (CO emissions. The results uncovered adaptive responses this community availability identified altered guilds metabolic processes CH CO Elevated reduced emissions, with hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis more suppressed than acetoclastic. shifted . effects combined exposures were similar those exposure alone. reduction emission by increased was much greater concomitant increase emission. Thus, expected reduce aggregate warming effect Metaproteomics revealed unique subnetwork involving metabolism that converts lactate produce acetate, H S, when under oxic conditions. This study provides quantitative resolution key necessary for prediction future climate scenarios.
