Methanotrophs and Co-occurring Microbial Taxa: Genomic Potential for Carbon, Nitrogen, and Sulfur Cycles in Newly Formed High-altitude Proglacial Lakes.
Geochemical and genomic evidence consistent with significant microbial methane (CH4) oxidation in the surface sediments of cryo-oligotrophic proglacial lakes in the Nyainqentanglha Range on the Tibetan Plateau is observed and highlights the potential importance of methanotrophy in rapidly expanding proglacial ecosystem...
