Small ponds are important methane (CH4) sources. However, current estimates of CH4 emissions from aquaculture largely uncertain due to data paucity, especially in China─the largest producer the world. Here, we present a nationwide metadata analysis with database 55 field observations examine total China. We found that annual fluxes much larger than those reservoirs and lakes. The emission is 1.60 ± 0.62 Tg yr–1, an average growth rate ∼0.03 yr–2 during period 2008–2019. Compared global major protein-producing livestocks, species have lower (63%) intensity, defined by amount emitted per unit animal proteins. Our study highlights essential contribution China's national environmental cost sector for future protein production. More measurements multi-scale urgently needed reduce uncertainty ponds.

The Blue Carbon Ecosystems (BCEs) comprising mangroves, saltmarshes, and seagrasses located at the land-ocean interface provide crucial ecosystem services. These ecosystems serve as a natural barrier against transportation of plastic waste from land to ocean, effectively intercepting mitigating pollution in ocean. To gain insights into current state research, uncover key research gaps related BCEs, this study conveyed comprehensive overview using bibliometric, altmetric, literature synthesis approaches. bibliometric analysis revealed significant increase publications addressing particularly since 2018. Geographically, Chinese institutions have made substantial contributions field compared countries regions with extensive BCEs established blue carbon science programs. Furthermore, many studies focused on mangrove ecosystems, while limited attention was given exploring saltmarsh, seagrass, multiple simultaneously. Through systematic analysis, identified four major themes BCE-plastics research: a) trapping by vegetated coastal b) microbial degradation, c) ingestion benthic organisms, d) effects biogeochemistry. Upon synthesising knowledge each theme, we employed perspective lens outline future frameworks, specifically emphasising habitat characteristics Emphasising importance synergistic between science, underscore opportunities progress our understanding reservoirs across their subsequent sequestration mineralisation.

Abstract Inland waters are significant emitters of greenhouse gases for the atmosphere and play an important role in global carbon cycle. With a vast land area East Asia spanning broad range climatic conditions, China has large number natural human‐made water bodies. These inland systems importance because their high emission fluxes. Over past decades, experienced unprecedented environmental changes driven by rapid economic development, which have profoundly modified its biogeochemistry associated emissions. This review focuses on dioxide (CO 2 ) methane (CH 4 dynamics from China's response to change. Major drivers CO CH emissions, including aquatic metabolism, hydrological factors, prevailing human impacts, examined. To advance our understanding emissions waters, we further identify several critical knowledge gaps, such as inadequate research headwater streams climate‐sensitive Tibetan Plateau ecosystems. Furthermore, insufficient undergoing extensive interventions (e.g., damming, flow regulation, pollution, farming practices aquaculture ponds) is highlighted. We suggest that future efforts should be made better capture spatiotemporal heterogeneity dissolved concentrations fluxes across well long‐term trends. overcome uncertainties sources current flux estimates, mechanistically understand transport transformation Chinese underlying processes particularly needed.

Abstract There is substantial interest in restoring tidal wetlands because of their high rates long‐term soil carbon sequestration and other valued ecosystem services. However, these are sometimes net sources greenhouse gases (GHG) that may offset climate cooling potential. GHG fluxes vary widely within across wetlands, so it essential to better understand how key environmental drivers, importantly, land management, affect dynamics. We measured methane (CH 4 ) nitrous oxide (N 2 O) at 26 reference restored wetland sites eight nontidal pastures (mostly diked former wetlands) five estuaries the Pacific Northwest (PNW), USA. 7–8 times over one year assess effects type, management on CH N O fluxes. Linear relationships between drivers were poor, but a machine‐learning approach with boosted regression trees provided strong predictability for based upon surface elevation, water‐table level, salinity. Less important variables groundwater pH, temperature. Under oligohaline conditions, variable very high, salinities above ppt relatively low an annual basis. Fluxes higher marshes wet than marshes, swamps, dry pastures. The model had lower predictive power model, type as most factor, although all types (median zero). Our results indicate estuarine hydrologic gradients driver use impacts largely mediated by varying conditions. In PNW, have salinity, water tables more likely increased emissions benefits until they gain enough elevation through accretion. This study also provides transferrable modeling predict consequences coastal using monitoring data from limited set drivers.
