Spatial heterogeneity of methane concentration, diffusion and production potential, and methanogen community abundance and diversity in sediments from Lake Remoray (France)
Abstract:Lake ecosystems contribute significantly to atmospheric methane and are likely to become even bigger methane emitters with the global spread of hypoxia/anoxia in freshwater ecosystems. Here we characterized the spatial heterogeneity of methane production potential, methane concentration, archaeal and bacterial and methanogen communities across Lake Remoray sediment during the summer period, when hypoxic conditions settle in the deepest part of the water column. It was hypothesized that methane concentration an… Show more
