1 Effects of land use, abiotic and biotic soil properties on in situ CH 4 flux in montane and subalpine forests and grasslands Katrin M. Hofmann, Sieglinde Farbmacher and Paul Illmer Annual Conference of the ASSS 2014 Burning Issues In Soil Science
2 1. Introduction Climatic impact of CH 4 CH 4 second most important greenhouse gas after CO 2 (accounts for 20 to 30% of the global warming effect) preindustrial: 0.75 ppm today: 1.8 ppm predicted (by 2050): 2.55 ppm GWP (global warming potential) of CH 4 26 to 41 times higher compared to CO 2
3 1. Introduction Origin and fate of CH 4 sources: Tg y -1 anthropogenic and natural sources 69% biological origin (Conrad, 2009)
4 1. Introduction Methanogenesis in aerated soils methanogenic Archaea as part of anoxic food chain traditional view: methanogens restricted to anoxic habitats tolerance (catalases)? anoxic micro-niches (O 2 depletion)?
5 1. Introduction Methane oxidation in soils only biological sink for CH 4 (30 Tg y -1 ) methanotrophs use CH 4 (carbon and energy supply) α-proteobacteria, γ-proteobacteria low-affinity and high-affinity methane-oxidation
6 2. Aims determination of in situ CH 4 flux in well-aerated upland forest and grassland soils Effect of plant cover on CH 4 flux in montane and subalpine soils Effect of basement rock (calcareous vs. siliceous) Change of flux rates according to altitude physicochemical and microbiological properties of the soils are measured to embed the data into a broad biological context
7 3. Materials & Methods Soil sampling 16 forest soils, 14 grassland soils 500, 1000, 1500, and 2000 m July 2013
8 3. Materials & Methods CH 4 flux
9 3. Materials & Methods Abotic and biotic factors ph Water content organic matter (OM) C t, N t MWHC NH 4+, NO 3-, P Physicochemical factors Basal soil respiration DHA Microbial biomass (C mic ) Microbial activities and biomass

15 5. Summary CH 4 contributes to global warming importance of understanding regulation of flux rates collect data also from alpine regions well-aerated soils of the alpine regions are not exclusively sinks for CH 4 forest soils markedly stronger removed CH 4 altitudinal trend ph, organic matter, and NH 4 + could be involved in the regulation of CH 4 flux soils with high ph values, OM contents, and NH 4 + showed reduced capacities to act as sinks
