Soil properties and sediment accretion modulate methane fluxes from restored wetlands. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • Wetlands are crucial sources of methane emissions, but understanding how soil properties affect these emissions over time is limited.
  • A study measured methane and carbon dioxide fluxes in two different types of restored wetlands in California, finding that alluvium wetlands emitted significantly less methane than peat wetlands initially due to higher iron concentrations in the soil.
  • Over time, methane emissions from alluvium wetlands began to resemble those of peat wetlands, indicating that soil properties may only have a temporary effect on methane flux, potentially linked to changes in soil conditions that favor methane production.

Article Abstract

Wetlands are the largest source of methane (CH ) globally, yet our understanding of how process-level controls scale to ecosystem fluxes remains limited. It is particularly uncertain how variable soil properties influence ecosystem CH emissions on annual time scales. We measured ecosystem carbon dioxide (CO ) and CH fluxes by eddy covariance from two wetlands recently restored on peat and alluvium soils within the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta of California. Annual CH fluxes from the alluvium wetland were significantly lower than the peat site for multiple years following restoration, but these differences were not explained by variation in dominant climate drivers or productivity across wetlands. Soil iron (Fe) concentrations were significantly higher in alluvium soils, and alluvium CH fluxes were decoupled from plant processes compared with the peat site, as expected when Fe reduction inhibits CH production in the rhizosphere. Soil carbon content and CO uptake rates did not vary across wetlands and, thus, could also be ruled out as drivers of initial CH flux differences. Differences in wetland CH fluxes across soil types were transient; alluvium wetland fluxes were similar to peat wetland fluxes 3 years after restoration. Changing alluvium CH emissions with time could not be explained by an empirical model based on dominant CH flux biophysical drivers, suggesting that other factors, not measured by our eddy covariance towers, were responsible for these changes. Recently accreted alluvium soils were less acidic and contained more reduced Fe compared with the pre-restoration parent soils, suggesting that CH emissions increased as conditions became more favorable to methanogenesis within wetland sediments. This study suggests that alluvium soil properties, likely Fe content, are capable of inhibiting ecosystem-scale wetland CH flux, but these effects appear to be transient without continued input of alluvium to wetland sediments.
