1. our findings explain: CH4 level fluctuations in parallel with global temperature
-Ice cores: natural archives, 1 million years ago
-bubble: relative concentrations of atmospheric gases
-For example CO2 levels linked to global temperatures
2. CH4 same trend as CO2, reasons unclear
-tried wetlands, difficult to reproduce
3. another explanation: CH4 hydrates
-develop at high pressure
-large quantity of CH4 trapped in ocean sediments
-sudden release: YET: recent results show CH4 hydrates were stable, not involved in abrupt increase
4. terrestrial vegetation sensitive to environmental changes
-such variations should be considered as a possible cause of the decline in CH4+rises
-last glacial maximum, Amazon forest only half, release less CH4, Co2+ temperatures rose since then->enhance plant growth-> more CH4 |
