Multiple processes contribute to methane emission in a riparian cottonwood forest ecosystem

Lawrence B. Flanagan et al.

Summary: The study found that there are multiple biogeochemical processes influencing methane production, oxidation, and transport in riparian cottonwood ecosystems and adjacent rivers. Methane emissions from tree stems partially offset methane uptake by soils. Methane is primarily emitted from cottonwood tree stems, and methane-producing microorganisms are present in the stems.

Isotopic evidence for axial tree stem methane oxidation within subtropical lowland forests

Luke C. Jeffrey et al.

Summary: Mechanisms moderating methane behavior along the soil-tree stem-atmosphere continuum remain unclear. Stable isotope analysis in subtropical lowland species revealed that methane in tree stems is mainly derived from soil sources. Significant methane enrichment was observed in upper tree stems, suggesting distinct gas sources and transport processes. Diel experiments showed higher oxidation rates in the afternoon compared to the morning.

Pulse labelling of deep soil layers in forest with 13CH4: testing a new method for tracing methane in the upper horizons, understorey vegetation and tree stems using laser-based spectrometry

C. Plain et al.

Summary: The study shows that tree stems in upland forests can emit methane produced in the soil, even when the soil acts as a net methane sink. Understorey vegetation does not directly contribute to methane emissions from the soil. Using (CH4)-C-13 pulse labelling and laser-based spectrometry for tracing is a promising approach to study methane transport from production to emission.

Simultaneous tree stem and soil greenhouse gas (CO2, CH4, N2O) flux measurements: a novel design for continuous monitoring towards improving flux estimates and temporal resolution

Laetitia M. Brechet et al.

Summary: The study introduced a flexible stem chamber system for continuous measurement of greenhouse gas fluxes in a rainforest. Results showed that lengthening the closure time of the stem chamber was necessary for accurate estimates of CH4 and N2O fluxes.

A versatile gas flux chamber reveals high tree stem CH4 emissions in Amazonian peatland

Joost van Haren et al.

Summary: Tree stems can be a significant source of CH4, with high variability observed in flux rates between species and individuals. Methods supporting large sampling campaigns are needed to accurately evaluate the sources of variation and controls of CH4 stem fluxes.

Spatiotemporal variability and origin of CO2 and CH4 tree stem fluxes in an upland forest

Josep Barba et al.

Summary: This study investigated the fluxes of CO2 and CH4 on tree stems in a temperate upland forest using manual and automated measurements. It found clear seasonal trends and differences in spatial and temporal variability of these fluxes. Factors influencing stem CH4 fluxes are still unclear, suggesting a greater influence of gas transport and diffusivity through wood rather than traditional respiratory CO2 flux drivers.
