Methane emissions from north and middle taiga mires of Western Siberia: Bc8 standard model

  • Published:
Moscow University Soil Science Bulletin Aims and scope

Abstract

During summer and autumn of 2008–2010 in the north and middle taiga, measurements of methane emissions from different types of wetland landscapes in Khanty-Mansi and Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrugs were made by the static chamber method. Total methane emission from West-Siberian northern and middle taiga mires is estimated at 550 and 530 kt C-CH4 per year.
