Abstract/Contents:"Two golf greens, built over a sanitary landfill with areas of poor to no growth, were examined to determine if biogas production was a casual agent of these poor growth areas and how it affected turf growth as well as soil conditions. This was accomplished by measuring methane, flux, methane oxidation, soil temperature, pH, noting anaerobic conditions and percent microbial mat that covered the ground. The areas of poor growth showed a significant relationship to methane flux. Flux readings as high as 41.69 liter m(-2) hr(-1) were recorded. Oxidation of methane at rates of nearly 10 liter m(-2) hr(-1) showed significant relationship to percent of microbial mat that covered the ground as well as to soil temperature on both greens."
