Methane (CH4) is the most important greenhouse gas and reactive trace gas in the atmosphere. Recently, it has been reported that terrestrial
plants can emit CH4 under aerobic conditions, which may call for reevaluation of the inventory of CH4 emissions in China. In this paper, those emissions over China and their effects on CH4 concentrations in lower troposphere were investigated. Firstly, based on the work of Keppler et al., the aerobic plant CH4 emission model (PLANTCH4) for China was established. And by using the database of normalized difference vegetation index
(NDVI) derived from NOAA/AVHRR, the distribution of net primary productivity (NPP) over China was simulated, and thereby,
for the first time, the amount and distribution of the newly identified source in China were estimated. Secondly, with the
aid of the three-dimensional atmospheric chemistry model system (MM5-CALGRID), the effects of the emissions were studied.
The results show that the annual aerobic plant CH4 emissions over China amount to 11.83 Tg, i.e. nearly 24% of Chinese total
CH4 emissions. And the major fraction (about 43%) comes from forests. When those emissions are considered in modeling, computed
countrywide mean surface concentration of CH4 is 29.9% higher than without them, with a maximum increase of 69.61 μg·m−3 in the south of Yunnan Province. In conclusion, to study CH4 emissions from terrestrial plants over China may have important implications for correctly estimating the contribution of
China to global CH4 budget, and may call for a reconsideration of the role of CH4 in global and regional environment and climate change.
