With the publication of a scientific report following research in the lakes of Iceland, researchers involved —including one from UW-Stout — are publishing part of the results. With work recently ...

Reducing sulphur in the air may inadvertently increase natural emissions of methane from wetlands such as peatlands and swamps, a new study has found. The resulting additional future release of 20-34 ...

Improved computer models shed light on how reducing sulphur emissions will inadvertently release methane from wetlands.

Methane, a potent greenhouse gas, is generated by natural processes in the sediments of reservoirs and lakes in no-to-low-oxygen environments, which usually occur in the warmer spring-fall months.

In the summers of 2018 and 2019, an all-female team of scientists ventured to the glaciers of Iceland to research the complex interactions between glacial systems, climate change and methane ...
