Current and future methane emissions from boreal-Arctic wetlands and lakes

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 28 August 2025; doi:10.1038/s41558-025-02413-y

How much methane will be emitted from the boreal-Arctic region under climate change is not well constrained. Here the authors show that accounting for distinct wetland and lake classes leads to lower estimates of current methane loss as some classes emit low amounts of methane.
