Abstract

Reclamation of coastal wetlands for aquaculture use has been shown to have opposite effects on sediment CH4 production potential and CH4 emission flux, but the underlying reason remained unclear. In this study, we compared sediment properties, CH4 production potential, emission flux, and CH4 transpo...
