Methane fluxes from lakes are considerably higher during the day than the night, according to a study conducted by LiU researchers. Consequently, the research group says that the contribution of northern lakes to global methane emissions is 15% lower than previously estimated. The study is published in PNAS, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Freshwater lakes, rivers and reservoirs are the second greatest source of emissions of methane, the second most important greenhouse gas for…
