Summary Aerobic methane ( CH 4 ) oxidation mitigates CH 4 release and is a significant pathway for carbon and energy flow into aquatic food webs. Arctic lakes are responsible for an increasing proportion of global CH 4 emissions, but CH 4 assimilation into the aquatic food web in arctic lakes is poo...
