Primarily, CH4 is produced during the anaerobic mineralization of organic carbon in anoxic sediments by methanogenic archaea. However, the origin of the recurrent and ubiquitous CH4 supersaturation in oxic waters (i.e., the methane paradox) is still controversial. Here, we determined the dissolved CH4 concentration in the water column of 12 reservoirs during summer stratification and winter mixing to explore CH4 sources in oxic waters.}, organization = {Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness CGL2014-52362-R}, organization = {University of Granada - Unidades de Excelencia UCE.PP2017.03}, organization = {Consejería de Economía, Conocimiento, Empresas, y Universidad de Andalucía}, organization = {European Union (EU) SOMM17/6109/UGR}, organization = {Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport FPU014/02917 FPU2014-04048}, organization = {Youth Employment Initiative (YEI) from the Junta de Andalucia}, organization = {European Commission European Commission Joint Research Centre 6017}, publisher = {Copernicus Gesellschaft MBH}, title = {Dissolved CH4 coupled to photosynthetic picoeukaryotes in oxic waters and to cumulative chlorophyll a in anoxic waters of reservoirs}, doi = {10.5194/bg-17-3223-2020}, author = {León Palmero, Elizabeth and Contreras Ruiz, Alba and Sierra, Ana and Morales Baquero, Rafael and Reche Cañabate, Isabel}, }
