Methane is one of the most important greenhouse gases globally, second only to carbon dioxide in terms of its warming effects in the atmosphere. A large portion of natural methane emissions comes from wetlands, although exactly how much is unclear. Figuring out the magnitudes and locations of wetlands’ methane contribution more precisely is crucial for improving our understanding of climate change.
