Sources of atmospheric methane: Measurements in rice paddies and a discussion
Open accessAbstract
We have made field measurements of methane fluxes from rice paddies, fresh water lakes, and saltwater marshes to infer estimates of the size of these sources of atmospheric methane. The rice‐paddy measurements, the first of their kind, show that the principal means of methane escape is through the plants themselves as opposed to transport across the water‐air interface via bubbles or molecular diffusion. Nitrogen‐fertilized plants release much more methane than unfertilized plants but even these measured rates are only one fourth as large as those inferred earlier by Koyama and on which all global extrapolations have been based to date. We also compare our measured methane fluxes from lakes and marshes to similar earlier data and find that extant data and flux‐measurement methods are insufficient for reliable global extrapolations.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
