Methane levels in Earth’s atmosphere surged faster than ever in the early 2020s, and scientists say the reason was a ...

In a paradox of air pollution, a decrease in man-made pollutants led to more methane in our atmosphere. And natural wetlands released more of the planet-warming gas at the same time ...

Methane comes in different isotopic signatures. Methane from fossil fuels like natural gas leaks or coal mines is heavier, ...

Atmospheric methane rose faster than ever in the early 2020s, driven less by fossil fuels and more by changes in nature itself.

A combination of weakened atmospheric removal and increased emissions from warming wetlands, rivers, lakes, and agricultural ...

Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas with strong heat-trapping capabilities. Although there is less methane in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide, the foremost greenhouse gas, researchers attribute 30 ...

The findings highlight the complex link between atmospheric chemistry, climate, and human activity.

NO x reacts with air to form hydroxyl radicals. These go on to destroy methane, turning it into carbon dioxide, a less potent greenhouse gas. So, less NO x inadvertently led to more methane persisting ...

This study will consider the need and viable options for atmospheric methane removal--one category of "negative emissions technologies" currently being explored as part of efforts to achieve net-zero ...

Methane spiked in the early 2020s as wetter conditions boosted emissions at the same time the atmosphere’s chemical “cleaner” weakened.
