Abstract
Highlights: [•] We investigated CH4 oxidation in an afforested chronosequence in Denmark. [•] We linked CH4 oxidation with the abundance of methane oxidizing bacteria (MOB). [•] CH4 oxidation increased with time since afforestation. [•] The abundance of MOB also increased following afforestation. [•] Changes in soil organic carbon and bulk density were the main drivers.
