Yes, methane, a greenhouse gas 21 times more dangerous than carbon dioxide is generated whenever there is anaerobic decomposition (ie, without air) of organic material.
See the link below for a very quick video (13 secs) of about 10 grams of methane being burnt off a lake. Then multiply the 10 grams by just about any number of frozen lakes and tundra you can think of.

What Problems are caused by the melting of permafrost?
The permafrost is the perpetually frozen peaty bogs of northern areas like Siberia or Canada's Nunavut.When the frozen material is melted several things happen:Trapped methane is released to add to the climate change problemsBuilding, pipelines and rads sink into the soupy thawed messAnimals and people cannot pass over the thawed areas disrupting transportation, hunting and animal migrationErosion near the ocean, lakes and rivers increases.
What do you call large bodies of frozen water?
On land a large body of permanent ice is a glacier; in the water this is an iceberg.
What are some of the sources of greenhouse gases other than the burning of fossil fuels?
Methane is another greenhouse gas twenty times more powerful than carbon dioxide. It is released from some agricultural practices, including cattle rearing and pig farming. It is also being released as frozen tundra and lakes melt.
What two gases contribute to global warming?
Carbon dioxide is the most serious problem, released whenever we burn fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).Methane is also a greenhouse gas, in that it will trap heat in the atmosphere, released by cattle, rice paddy fields and melting lakes and tundra.
What is the climate like on titan?
Titan has a cold and hazy climate with temperatures around -180 degrees Celsius. Its thick atmosphere is mainly composed of nitrogen with traces of methane, resulting in a greenhouse effect that keeps the surface warm. Precipitation on Titan consists of methane rain, which forms rivers, lakes, and seas of liquid methane and ethane.
Why does water at the bottom of frozen lakes stay the same temperature?
pressure of the depths are the same
How do turtles live in frozen lakes?
They bury themselves in the soft mud at the bottom of the lake until warm weather returns.
Does methane gas come from automobiles?
No, methane gas comes from organic material that rots anaerobically (without air), like belching cattle, or the melting of tundra and frozen lakes. Carbon dioxide is the greenhouse gas that comes from automobiles (when fossil fuel is burnt).
Is there frozen lakes on Uranus?
i think so
Where do the ducks go when the lakes are frozen?
Florida
How do you go to the bottom of the three lakes in Pokemon diamond?
There is no bottom of those lakes. If you're looking for the pixies, they are in the caves in the middle of the lakes.
Will your insurance be good if you drive on frozen lakes?
Check your insurance document. Each insurance company has different rules about unconventional acts such as driving on frozen lakes.
What is the liquids in the lakes on Titan observed by the Cassini mission?
liquid methane.
What are the three types of methane formation?
1) Methane is produced by vegetation that is buried and being turned into coal. The heat and temperature result in the liberation of methane from more complex organic molecules.2) Methane is produced by bacteria breaking down organic matter in the absence of oxygen, plant material at the bottom of stagnant lakes for example.3) Methane is produced when clathrates warm up. Clathrates are complex compounds of water and hydrocarbons, and many millions of tonnes exist at the bottom of the ocean and in the tundra.4) Methane is produced in the stomachs of ruminant animals such as cows and sheep by the breakdown of plant material in their stomachs.
Are there lakes in a tundra?
no they do not they problay do but is might be frozen
Does lakes of methane exist on moon Titan?
Yes, lakes of methane and ethane have been found on Saturn's moon Titan. These lakes are primarily made up of liquid hydrocarbons due to the extremely cold temperatures on Titan's surface. The presence of such lakes makes Titan the only other known celestial body in our solar system with stable liquid bodies on its surface besides Earth.
