Spatial and temporal heterogeneity of methane ebullition in lowland headwater streams and the impact on sampling design

Abstract: Headwater streams are known sources of methane (CH 4 ) to the atmosphere, but their contribution to global scale budgets remains poorly constrained. While efforts have been made to better understand diffusive fluxes of CH 4 in streams, much less attention has been paid to ebullitive fluxes. We examine the temporal and spatial heterogeneity of CH 4 ebullition from four lowland headwater streams in the temperate northeastern United States over a 2-yr period. Ebullition was observed in all monitored streams with … Show more

“…Calculated rates of gas exchange were similar to limited direct measurements in each of the streams (Supplementary Figure S1) using short-term continuous injections of a volatile gas tracer (Hall and Ulseth, 2020). Median diffusive CH 4 flux was 5.7 Robison et al (2021) during the same period of record (Table 2; Figure 2D). Across all four streams, the median diffusive CH 4 flux (5.7 ± 2.3 mmol CH 4 m −2 d −1 ) was greater than the median ebullitive CH 4 flux (0.6 ± 0.1 mmol CH 4 m −2 d −1 ).…”

“…Watersheds were selected to contrast CH 4 dynamics in the two predominant land use conditions in this region (developed versus forested). These streams have been the focus of previous studies that examined nutrient and carbon cycling and the impact of land use (e.g., Wollheim et al, 2005;Wollheim et al, 2015;Wollheim et al, 2017), and were all monitored for CH 4 ebullition from May through October 2019 (Robison et al, 2021). The watersheds of two streams, Sawmill Brook (D1) and College Brook (D2), are characterized by a relatively developed, suburban landscape, while the other two, Cart Creek (F1) and Dube Brook (F2), are predominantly forestcovered.…”
