Suppressing peatland methane production by electron snorkeling through pyrogenic carbon in controlled laboratory incubations

Warmer and drier conditions are increasing the frequency of forest fires, which in turn produce pyrogenic carbon. Here the authors show that accumulation of pyrogenic carbon can suppress post-fire methane production in northern peatlands and can effectively buffer fire-derived greenhouse gas emissio...
