Implication

Investigations revealed methanogenesis dominates in sediment microbial communities of Lake Chabyda, suggesting impacts on permafrost methane emissions.

Key Points

The study aimed to investigate biogeochemical activity and microbial community structure in Lake Chabyda.
Analyzed water column and surface sediment samples from Lake Chabyda in Central Yakutia.
Assessed primary photosynthetic production and microbial community composition during a cyanobacterial bloom.
Examined the abundance of methanotrophic bacteria and methanogenic archaea in sediments.
Primary photosynthetic production reached 1.1 mg L –1 day –1, characteristic of eutrophic lakes.
Bacterial abundance peaked at 10 7 cells mL –1 in sediments rich in organic matter (38–43.7%).
Methanogenic archaea comprised up to 20% of the sediment microbial community, indicating significant methanogenesis.
