Cleaner air didn’t mean lower methane. New research shows how chemical shifts and La Niña rains pushed methane emissions to record levels.
Observational data suggest models are likely underestimating the amount of methane lost through atmospheric chemistry ...
When Covid lockdowns emptied highways and grounded jets, global carbon dioxide emissions briefly dipped and city skies turned an unfamiliar shade of blue. Yet in the same window, methane in the ...
The complexities of urban environments—like variable winds off tall buildings or surfaces—significantly impair the ability to detect natural gas leaks from underground pipelines, a new study shows.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the atmosphere temporarily lost its ability to break down methane, leading to a huge spike in ...
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 ...
Scot Miller is an assistant professor in Johns Hopkins University's Department of Environmental Health and Engineering whose research focuses on greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. His ...
Washington — Oil and natural gas companies for the first time will have to pay a federal fee if they emit dangerous methane above certain levels under a rule being made final by the Biden ...
Understanding the flammability limits and combustion characteristics of fuel–air mixtures is pivotal for both industrial safety and the advancement of energy technologies. These limits define the ...
