Global increase in methane production under future warming of lake bottom waters
Methane is typically produced in lake sediments, with the rate of methane production being strongly temperature dependent. Future warming of bottom waters will likely result in an increase in methane production rates of 13%–40% by the end of the century, with many low-latitude lakes experiencing an increase of up to 17 times the historical (1970–1999) global average under RCP 8.5.
