Matthews, E., 1993: Wetlands. In Atmospheric Methane: Sources, Sinks, and Role in Global Change, NATO ASI Series I: Global Environmental Change. M.A.K. Khalil, Ed., Springer-Verlag, vol. 13, pp. 14-61, doi:10.1007/978-3-642-84605-2_15.

Wetlands are most likely the largest natural source of methane to the atmosphere, accounting for ∼20% of the current global annual emission of ∼450-550 Tg (1012 g). Measurements of methane from Greenland and Antarctic ice cores indicate atmospheric concentrations of ∼350 ppbv during the Last Glacial Maximum rising to 650 ppbv during the pre-industrial Holocene.
