Global Atmospheric Methane Uptake by Upland Tree Woody Surfaces

July 25, 2024

A new study reveals that upland trees, particularly above 2 meters from the forest floor, significantly contribute to methane uptake, acting as a crucial methane sink. This microbial methane drawdown on woody surfaces could account for 24.6–49.9 Tg of atmospheric methane uptake globally. These findings highlight the enhanced climate benefits of protecting and restoring tropical and temperate forests, offering a new dimension to natural climate solutions🌿🌏
