Forests don’t just absorb CO2 — they also take up methane

Forskningsoutput: Tidskriftsbidrag › Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift

Sammanfattning

Field studies reveal that the woody surfaces of upland trees are a substantial global sink for methane, a potent greenhouse gas. The findings help to fill a hole in the global methane budget and should improve the accuracy of climate models.
