Soil CO2 and CH4 emissions and their carbon isotopic signatures linked to saturated and drained states of the Three Gorges Reservoir of ChinaIncreased CO2 and CH4 emissions are the main causes of global warming (IPCC, 2013), with approximately 44% and 60% of CO2 and CH4 emissions being emitted into the atmosphere by anthropogenic activities. Human activities such as dams disturb the structure and function of wetlands, triggering large soil CO2 and CH4 emissions. However, controls over field CO2 and CH4 emissions and their carbon isotopic signatures in reservoir wetlands are not yet fully understood.Based on this, to fill the research gap, in this article, a group of Chinese researchers from Yunnan University and Wuhan Botanical Garden, Chinese Academy of Sciences selected four elevations (i.e., 175 m, 160–175 m, 145–160 m and the water column) at Zhongxian in Chongqing (30°42′ N, 108°18′ E) (Fig.1) under the riparian zone of the Three Gorges Reservoir, in order to quantify th...
