Effects of the addition of nitrogen and sulfate on CH4 and CO2 emissions, soil, and pore water chemistry in a high marsh of the Min River estuary in southeastern China
Effects of N and SO42 − on CH4 and CO2 emissions were studied in an estuarine marsh. CH4 and CO2 emissions were influenced more by ammonium than by nitrate. CH4 fluxes from a sulfate saturated marsh did not respond to additional sulfate. Nitrogen, sulfate availability and enzyme activity affected CH4 and CO2 emissions.
