Investigation of the global methane budget over 1980–2017 using GFDL-AM4.1 [PDF]
Changes in atmospheric methane abundance have implications for both chemistry and climate as methane is both a strong greenhouse gas and an important precursor for tropospheric ozone.

Hotspot Detection and Estimation of Methane Emissions from Landfill Final Cover
The main objectives of this study were to identify methane hotspots through spatial distribution tests of the surface methane concentration above a landfill final cover and to investigate the effects of rainfall, atmospheric pressure, ground temperature,

The impact of air pollutant and methane emission controls on tropospheric ozone and radiative forcing: CTM calculations for the period 1990-2030 [PDF]
To explore the relationship between tropospheric ozone and radiative forcing with changing emissions, we compiled two sets of global scenarios for the emissions of the ozone precursors methane (CH4), carbon monoxide (CO), non-methane volatile organic ...

Composting and Methane Emissions of Coffee By-Products [PDF]
In the last 20 years, the demand for coffee production has increased detrimentally, heightening the need for production, which is currently driving the increase in land cultivation for coffee. However, this increase in production ultimately leads to the amplification of waste produced.

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.

Reduced methane emissions from large-scale changes in water management of China’s rice paddies during 1980-2000 [PDF]
Decreased methane emissions from paddy rice may have contributed to the decline in the rate of increase of global atmospheric methane (CH4) concentration over the last 20 years. In China, midseason paddy drainage, which reduces growing season CH4 fluxes,
