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

A change in atmospheric chemistry during the covid pandemic resulted in methane concentrations spiking, raising concerns that ...

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

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 ...

Scientists found that natural bacteria can eat methane, cut climate pollution, and turn waste gas into useful materials.

Through a combination of high-pressure experiments and optical spectroscopy, physicists have revealed new insights into the ...

As mighty glaciers melt in the Arctic, new research finds million-year-old methane gas trapped beneath the ice is surfacing, with a potential to further warm the planet. "Glacial retreat is the big ...

Can methane flare burners be advanced to produce less methane? This is what a recent study published in Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research hopes to address as a team of researchers from the ...

Methane, the main component of natural gas, is a major contributor to global warming, and is far more potent than carbon dioxide in preventing heat from escaping Earth’s atmosphere. According to a new ...

Plans are in the works for California to launch a methane-detecting satellite network, the governor's office says. The project is a continuation of the state's efforts to launch its "own damn ...
