Concentrations of dissolved methane were determined in the Lena River, a permafrost lake and in Tiksi Bay, from 2016-2018, in summer and under ice. In addition in winter 2017, also the concentration in the ice cores was determined (Magen et al. 2014). For the winter 2017 samples, also the methane oxidation rate was determined with a radiotracer method (Bussmann et al. 2015). ...
