The role of anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) in wetlands, the largest natural source of atmospheric methane, is poorly constrained. Here we report rates of microbially mediated AOM (average rate=20 nmol cm
−3
per day) in three freshwater wetlands that span multiple biogeographical provinces. The observed AOM rates rival those in marine en...
