Distinct microbial communities drive methane cycling in below- and above-ground compartments of tropical cloud forests growing on peat

Abstract Cloud forests are unique yet understudied ecosystems regarding CH4 exchange despite their significance in carbon storage. We investigated CH4 fluxes in peat soil and tree stems of two tropical cloud forests on Réunion Island, one featuring Erica reunionensis and the second a mix of E. reuni...
