In their ongoing effort to make carbon capture more affordable, researchers at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have developed a method to convert captured carbon dioxide (CO2) into methane, the primary component of natural gas.

While methane concentrations are well observed, emissions have to be inferred based on a variety of factors.

Researchers have shown that human-caused climate change will have important consequences for how volcanic gases interact with the atmosphere.

Study finds low-rise, high-density urban environments are optimal for reducing GHG emissions.

Increases in greenhouse gases, decreases in aerosols and polar sea-ice, are major factors

Findings suggest aircraft emissions may alter the stratosphere at mid-high latitudes

When lockdowns during the coronavirus pandemic cut local nitrogen oxide emissions, the effect on ozone pollution was global and unexpectedly rapid.

Such detailed maps could help policymakers choose the most effective ways of cutting carbon emissions.

NOAA and Boeing are teaming up to evaluate the best placement for a NOAA greenhouse gas sampling system on a commercial jet by testing options on a new Boeing 737 as part of Boeing’s 2021 ecoDemonstrator flying test bed program.

Researchers are using satellite data to locate small mines that can cause long-term damage to forest communities and human health.
