The spatial and temporal variability of methane flux was investigated in six wetland soils in southern Germany from July 1996 to July 1998. The objectives of our study were (i) to test the hypothesis if CH4 emissions vary consistently with differences in groundwater level and geomorphic units, (ii) to demonstrate that there is, on a global scale, substantial CH4 emission from wetland soils in temperate-humid climates. Daily emissions of CH4 in these wetland soils ranged from 0 to 85 mg CH4 m-2d-1 (medians), and cumulative yearly emissions differed by two orders of magnitude (0 to 73 g CH4 m-2). There was a non-linear correlation between CH4 emission and both groundwater level and Eh. Both of the latter variables were very well related to soil morphology and classification. We recommended that soil maps may be used for area calculations of the CH4-fluxes from terrestrial ecosystems.
