Agricultural methane emissions and the potential formitigation [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2021
Agriculture is the largest anthropogenic source of methane (CH4), emitting 145 Tg CH4 y−1to the atmosphere in 2017. The main sources are enteric fermentation, manure management, rice cultivation and residue burning. There is significant potential to reduce CH4from these sources, with bottom-up mitigation potentials of approximately 10.6, 10, 2 and 1 Tg

Methane in the Baltic and North Seas and a reassessment of the marine emissions of methane [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
During three measurement campaigns on the Baltic and North Seas, atmospheric and dissolved methane was determined with an automated gas chromatographic system.

Retrieval of methane source strengths in Europe using a simple modeling approach to assess the potential of spaceborne lidar observations [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2014
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

Large emissions from floodplain trees close the Amazon methane budget [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
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 Chemical Feedbacks on Decadal Methane Emissions Estimates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The coupled chemistry of methane, carbon monoxide (CO), and hydroxyl radical (OH) can modulate methane's 9‐year lifetime. This is often ignored in methane flux inversions, and the impacts of neglecting interactive chemistry have not been quantified ...

Missing wintertime methane emissions from New York City related to combustion [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics
Accurately quantifying methane emissions from cities, and understanding the processes that drive these emissions, is important for reaching climate mitigation goals.

The role of endophytic methane-oxidizing bacteria in submerged Sphagnum in determining methane emissions of Northeastern Siberian tundra [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2011
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 ...

Four-dimensional variational data assimilation for inverse modeling of atmospheric methane emissions: Analysis of SCIAMACHY observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Recent observations from the Scanning Imaging Absorption Spectrometer for Atmospheric Chartography (SCIAMACHY) instrument aboard ENVISAT have brought new insights in the global distribution of atmospheric methane.

Assessment of methane emissions from US onshore oil and gas production using MethaneAIR measurements [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics
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.

Water table level controls methanogenic and methanotrophic communities and methane emissions in a Sphagnum-dominated peatland

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Peatlands are important sources of the greenhouse gas methane emissions equipoised by methanogens and methanotrophs. However, knowledge about how microbial functional groups associated with methane production and oxidation respond to water table ...
