在这里,考虑到气象变化的影响以及大气硫酸盐沉降和CO2的生物地球化学反馈,研究人员利用数据驱动的方法估算了2000-2100年湿地甲烷排放量。
结果显示,在低CO2情景下(1.5°和2°C变暖路径),由于清洁空气政策的影响,到2100年,硫酸盐沉积对湿地甲烷排放的抑制作用大大减弱,导致排放增加(7±2Tg a-1)分别占湿地总排放变化的35%和22%。在中等CO2情景下(2.4°至3.6°C变暖路径),硫酸盐沉积变化不大,CO2贡献了湿地排放增加的30%。
研究结果强调,在所有情景中,生物地球化学反馈可以刺激未来湿地排放量增加30%至45%。在1.5°C和2°C的路径下,湿地甲烷排放量可能会增加20至34Tg a-1到2100年,这将占到人为甲烷排放允许空间的8%到15%,目前的评估尚未考虑到这一因素。
据悉,现有的湿地甲烷排放预测往往忽略了全球生物地球化学循环的反馈。

Abstract: Existing projections of wetland methane emissions usually neglect feedbacks from global biogeochemical cycles. Using data-driven approaches, we estimate wetland methane emissions from 2000 to 2100, considering effects of meteorological changes and biogeochemical feedbacks from atmospheric sulfate deposition and CO2 fertilization. In low-CO2 scenarios (1.5° and 2°C warming pathways), the suppressive effect of sulfate deposition on wetland methane emissions largely diminishes by 2100 due to clean air policies, with resulting emission increases (7 ± 2 Tg a-1) being 35 and 22% of total wetland emission changes. In mid-CO2 scenarios (2.4° to 3.6°C warming pathways), sulfate deposition changes modestly, and CO2 fertilization contributes >30% of wetland emission increases. Across all scenarios, biogeochemical feedbacks can stimulate 30 to 45% of future wetland emission rises. Under 1.5° and 2°C pathways, wetland methane emissions will likely increase by 20 to 34 Tg a-1 by 2100, representing 8 to 15% of the allowable space for anthropogenic methane emissions, a factor not yet considered by current assessments.
