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 ...

Retrieval of methane source strengths in Europe using a simple modeling approach to assess the potential of spaceborne lidar observations [PDF]
We investigate the sensitivity of future spaceborne lidar measurements to changes in surface methane emissions. We use surface methane observations from nine European ground stations and a Lagrangian transport model to infer surface methane emissions for

Assessment of methane emissions from US onshore oil and gas production using MethaneAIR measurements [PDF]
Mitigation of methane emissions from the oil and gas sector is an effective way to reduce the near-term climate warming and losses of a valuable energy resource.

The role of endophytic methane-oxidizing bacteria in submerged Sphagnum in determining methane emissions of Northeastern Siberian tundra [PDF]
The role of the microbial processes governing methane emissions from tundra ecosystems is receiving increasing attention. Recently, cooperation between methanotrophic bacteria and submerged Sphagnum was shown to reduce methane emissions but also to ...

Missing wintertime methane emissions from New York City related to combustion [PDF]
Accurately quantifying methane emissions from cities, and understanding the processes that drive these emissions, is important for reaching climate mitigation goals.

Large emissions from floodplain trees close the Amazon methane budget [PDF]
Wetlands are the largest global source of atmospheric methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse gas. However, methane emission inventories from the Amazon floodplain, the largest natural geographic source of CH4 in the tropics, consistently underestimate the ...

Effects of seasonal inundation on methane fluxes from forested freshwater wetlands
Methane emissions from small freshwater ecosystems represent one of the largest components of uncertainty in the global methane budget. While these systems are known to produce large amounts of methane relative to their size, quantifying the timing ...

Evening Methane Emission Pulses from a Boreal Wetland Correspond to Convective Mixing in Hollows [PDF]
Spatial and temporal heterogeneity of methane flux from boreal wetlands makes prediction and up-scaling challenging, both within and among wetland systems.
