Understanding processes controlling the atmospheric methane (CH4) mixing ratio is crucial to predict and mitigate future climate changes in this gas. Despite recent detailed studies of the last ∼ 1000 to 2000 years, the mechanisms that control atmospheric CH4 still remain unclear, partly because the...
