Abstract

Wetland is one of the most significant sources of methane (CH4). Although global warming and elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations (eCO2) are expected to affect the CH4 cycle, the response of CH4 emission in natural wetland and paddy has been observed to be inconsistent. This variation is likely due to the complex interactions among soil, plant, and microbial processes that regulate CH4 dynamics, leaving the underlying mechanisms across global studies unknown. Here, we conducted a meta-analysis to elucidate the effects of warming, eCO2, and their co-effects on CH4 cycling in wetland. Our results demonstrate that eCO2 significantly increased CH4 emission in paddy (18.57%) but had no significant effect on that in natural wetland, attributed to eCO2-induced increase in belowground biomass and methane production potential in paddy. Conversely, warming promoted CH4 emission in natural wetland (26.71%) but had no substantial impact on CH4 in paddy. This difference is due to the lower mean annual temperature in natural wetland compared with paddy, where warming promotes plant growth and methanogen activity. Notably, the combined effects of eCO2 and warming on paddy CH4 emission were markedly greater than their individual effects, with a synergistic increase of 44.63%. Furthermore, the impact of eCO2 on CH4 emitted by natural wetland was enhanced with time, likely due to different extent of plant-induced priming effect and progressive nitrogen limitation, while CH4 emissions from paddies declined greatly with time. Our findings emphasize the pivotal role of wetlands in the global methane cycle and highlight the complex responses of CH4 emissions to climate changes.

大气CO2升高和气候变暖下湿地甲烷循环的全球响应及机制
湿地是甲烷(CH4)的重要来源之一。虽然全球变暖和大气二氧化碳浓度(eCO2)升高预计会影响CH4循环,但在自然湿地和稻田中观测到的CH4排放响应并不一致。这种变化可能是由于调节CH4动力学的土壤、植物和微生物过程之间复杂的相互作用,使得全球研究的潜在机制尚不清楚。本文通过荟萃分析,探讨了变暖、eCO2及其协同效应对湿地CH4循环的影响。结果表明,eCO2显著增加了稻田的CH4排放(18.57%),但对自然湿地的CH4排放没有显著影响,这主要是由于eCO2诱导稻田地下生物量和甲烷生产潜力的增加。相反,增温促进了天然湿地的CH4排放(26.71%),但对稻田CH4排放影响不大。这种差异是由于自然湿地的年平均气温低于稻田,而稻田的变暖促进了植物的生长和甲烷菌的活性。值得注意的是,eCO2和增温对水稻CH4排放的联合效应显著大于单独效应,协同增效幅度为44.63%。此外,eCO2对天然湿地CH4排放的影响随着时间的推移而增强,这可能是由于不同程度的植物诱导启动效应和氮的递进限制,而稻田CH4排放随着时间的推移而大幅下降。我们的研究结果强调了湿地在全球甲烷循环中的关键作用,并强调了CH4排放对气候变化的复杂响应。
