Methane chasers: Hunting a climate-changing gas seeping from Earth’s seafloor
By Elizabeth Devitt They’ve been called “bubble chasers,” and “seep seekers,” though they sometimes call themselves “flare ...
Annual increase in whole-atmosphere mean methane concentration for 2021 marks the largest since 2011
The National Institute for Environmental Studies (NIES) has promoted the Greenhouse gases Observing SATellite Series (GOSAT Series), a Japanese satellite project for greenhouse gas observation from ...
The annual increase in atmospheric concentrations of potent greenhouse gas methane has doubled in recent years. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s ...
Why atmospheric concentrations hit record levels last year. By David Gelles The extreme weather. The melting glaciers. The weirdly warm oceans. They’re all the product of global warming, which is ...
Methane levels in the atmosphere are at an all-time high. But curbing emissions of that potent greenhouse gas requires knowing where methane is being released, and why. Now, a global inventory of ...
The threat was invisible to the eye: tons of methane billowing skyward, blown out by natural gas pipelines snaking across Siberia. In the past, those plumes of potent greenhouse gas released by ...
A preliminary estimate from NOAA finds that levels of atmospheric methane, a potent heat-trapping gas, have hit an all-time high. Methane is roughly 80 times more powerful than carbon dioxide, and ...
