Abstract
Here is a commentary on “Methane Fluxes in Tidal Marshes of the Contiguous United States” recently published in Global Change Biology. Tidal wetlands are distinctive ecosystems with highly diverse species composition and complex, flexible environments. Thus, it is critical to accurately determine CH4 emissions from tidal wetlands in a changing climate. This study provides a very valuable data set to further explore the patterns, responses, and adaptation of CH4 fluxes in different tidal wetland ecosystems. We look forward to future research to further explore the unique processes and mechanisms of methane emissions in tidal wetlands in the future.
