Methane and carbon dioxide release from wetland ecosystems
Original language description
Wetlands can be defined as transitional ecotone ecosystems between terrestrial and aquatic conditions and are characterised by waterlogged soils. Prevailing anaerobic conditions in wetland soils slow down or suspend decomposition processes of organic matter. These processes are connected with the production of soil biogenic methane (CH 4 ) and carbon dioxide (CO2 ). CH4 is a product of organic decomposition under anaerobic conditions, while CO2 is a product of organic matter decomposition under aerobic conditions. Anaerobic conditions stabilised in profiles of wetland soils determine the crucial role of wetlands in the carbon cycle at both the local and the global scale. Wetlands sequester carbon well into soil for a long period, and their soils contain about one-third of the global soil carbon stock. It is a little paradox that ecosystems, which are responsible for creating huge carbon storage, are now under scrutiny in the case of CH4 emissions into the atmosphere.
