Abundance of methane oxidizing bacteria and CH4 oxidation rates were studied in water and sediments of the Yenisey estuary, the Bay of Yenisey, and the adjacent region of the Kara Sea. Number of methanotrophs reached 7900 cells/ml. CH4 oxidation rate in water was 0.4-200 nl/l/day and in 1 kg of sedi...
