摘要: The effect of flooding on methane (CH4) fluxes was studied through the construction an experimental reservoir in a boreal forest wetland at Experimental Lakes Area northwestern Ontario. Prior to flooding, peatland surface small source CH4 atmosphere (1.0 ± SD 2.3 mg m−2 d−1). After from submerged peat increased 64±68 d−1. bubbles within caused about 1/3 float. Fluxes these floating islands were much higher (440±350 d−1) than both pre-flood (undisturbed) and post-flood (submerged) surfaces.
