Atmospheric Methane: Comparison Between Methane's Record in 2006–2022 and During Glacial Terminations

open access: yesGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 37, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Atmospheric methane's rapid growth from late 2006 is unprecedented in the observational record. Assessment of atmospheric methane data attributes a large fraction of this atmospheric growth to increased natural emissions over the tropics, which appear to be responding to changes in anthropogenic climate forcing.
