3 (Bastviken et al., 2004) Small ponds (< km 2 ) only comprise 8.6% of total area of global water distribution, but account for 15.1% for CO 2 emission and 40.6% of diffusive CH 4 emissions. (Holgerson et al., 2016) Uncertainty in estimated values: Ebullition Analysis Our goal: Quantifying CH 4 ebullition fluxes contribution from small ponds. 7/26/2018 3

21 According to our experimental results, ebullition was the main pathway of CH 4 emission from small ponds, the average value of ebullition flux and ebullition ratio measured by floating chamber method was 1.02 μg m -2 s -1 and 75%, respectively. Water temperature have significant correlation with the half-hourly CH 4 ebullition fluxes. But the relationship between CH 4 ebullition flux and water depth is not yet clear. 7/26/
