“…The presence of methane in the Baltic was detected in benthic sediment and the near-bottom water (Jørgensen et al 1990;Piker et al 1998;Wilkens and Richardson 1998;Martens et al 1999;Schlüter et al 2004;Mathys et al 2005). The emission of this greenhouse gas from the coastal water ecosystem in the Baltic Sea into the atmosphere has also been confirmed by earlier studies (Heyer and Berger 2000;Liikanen et al 2009). Free gas bubbles were also detected in the Baltic sediment (Schmaljohann 1996;Jensen and Fossing 2005;Judd and Hovland 2007).…”

In this work, data on methanogenic Archaea communities in sediment from the coastal area of Puck Bay were investigated. Sediments were collected along the Hel Peninsula from areas characterized by the occurrence of gas bubbles. Based on the analysis of molecular markers, the presence of a specific methanogenic Archaea gene was detected at all stations. Further research involved the cloning and sequencing of methanogenic DNA. Based on the comparison of obtained genetic sequences with existing genetic databases, it was confirmed that all of the nucleotide sequences belonged to the domain Archaea. Furthermore, in the investigated sediment certain sequences had certain similarities to the sequences of organisms from the families Methanosarcinaceae, Methanospirillaceae and Methanocorpusculaceae.

“…Effect of temperature on methane production was also observed in southeastern USA where the most methane reased to the atmosphere during warm months (Pulliam 1993). In addition, close correlation between methane emissions and temperature was reported also from south part of Baltic Sea; the temperature has been found to be a key factor driving methane emissions (Heyer & Berger 2000).…”

“…Heyera and Berger (2000) found that in the coastal area of the southern Baltic Sea, there was a significant correlation between C& diurnal emission and water temperature. Wang et al (1997) reported a similar result in a wide range of temperature regimes of a rice field, where more than 90% of the diel variation of C& emissions could be predicted from soil temperature fluctuations.…”
