Four-dimensional variational data assimilation for inverse modelling of atmospheric methane emissions: method and comparison with synthesis inversion [PDF]
A four-dimensional variational (4D-Var) data assimilation system for inverse modelling of atmospheric methane emissions is presented. The system is based on the TM5 atmospheric transport model.

Methane release from warming-induced hydrate dissociation in the West Svalbard continental margin: timing, rates, and geological controls [PDF]
Hundreds of plumes of methane bubbles, first observed in 2008, emanate from an area of the seabed off West Svalbard that has become 1°C warmer over the past 30 years. The distribution of the plumes, lying close to and upslope from the present upper limit

A practical framework for oil and gas operators to estimate methane emission duration using operational data [PDF]
Methane management is a key greenhouse gas reduction focus within the oil and gas industry. While there are a variety of techniques for methane detection and measurement, aircraft-mounted sensors have become popular for both academic studies and ...

Computational Fluid Dynamics-Based Modeling of Methane Flows Around Oil and Gas Equipment
Recent studies estimate that emissions from oil and gas production facilities contribute between 20 and 50% of the total methane (CH4) emitted in the US; therefore, quantifying and reducing these emissions are crucial for achieving climate goals. Methane

Variability in aerobic methane oxidation over the past 1.2 Myrs recorded in microbial biomarker signatures from Congo fan sediments [PDF]
Methane (CH4) is a strong greenhouse gas known to have perturbed global climate in the past, especially when released in large quantities over short time periods from continental or marine sources.

Estimating Total Methane Emissions from the Denver-Julesburg Basin Using Bottom-Up Approaches
Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas with a 25 times higher 100-year warming potential than carbon dioxide and is a target for mitigation to achieve climate goals. To control and curb methane emissions, estimates are required from the sources and sectors
