Identification of methane (CH4) activation sites on solid catalysts in CH4 oxidation is crucial to provide understanding for the conversion of CH4 to valuable oxygenates and thus has been a subject of intensive research. It has been suggested in many experimental and theoretical studies that oxidize...
