It was found that during a 4‐day incubation of a Mollic Gleysol with 352 μl 1 −1 methane in the headspace, the rate of methane consumption declined exponentially from an initial value of 9.13 μmol kg −1 hour −1 (about 5% of total CO 2 evolved) according to first‐order kinetics. The increase of dehydrogenase activity due to methane amendment did not exceed 15% of the control value and reached the maximum after two days of incubation.
