Thawing permafrost has released so much methane into Esieh Lake near Fairbanks, Alaska that the air above it is flammable. Credit: Katey Walter Anthony/ University of Alaska Fairbanks ...

it's actually what's bubbling up from the lake floor. These aren't your average lakes. They're called thermokarst lakes and they're filled with highly flammable methane gas. During the summer the ...

If not oxidized by methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB), this can potentially lead to high episodic CH₄ emissions at icemelt. To understand the fate of CH₄ trapped below ice, we measured ...

Extreme cold and calm conditions on Sayram Lake in northwestern China turned it into a surreal, frozen wonderland. Take a ...

Here, we investigated the fate of methane in the water column of meromictic Lake Zug. We provide evidence for ongoing methane oxidation at the oxic/anoxic boundary and also in the anoxic hypolimnion, ...

By counting and measuring them, Walter Anthony is trying to gauge how much methane is rising from Goldstream Lake—and from the millions of similar lakes that now occupy nearly a third of the ...

The amount of methane generated according to this study, varies considerably depending on what enters the lake. The research team carried out tests in the laboratory that compared the impact of ...

Gwachon National Science Museum reopens Hall of Evolution on 28th The National Gwacheon Science Museum has completed the renovation of the natural history exhibition 'The Hall of Evolution' and ...

Alex Forrest, Interim Director of TERC. “Capturing the spatial variability of methane flux in a lake allows us to better understand the primary drivers of GHG emissions and refine our predictive ...

Rwanda has signed a $400 million deal to produce bottled gas from Lake Kivu, which emits such dense clouds of methane it is known as one of Africa’s “Killer Lakes”. The project by Gasmeth ...
