Methane

In 2024, wild ruminants emitted approximately 2.95 million metric tons of methane, primarily in the United States, Canada, and Africa. Ten species account for 75% of the emissions. Information on the spatial distribution of emissions improves methane modeling. more

The CoMet 3.0 Tropics campaign successfully conducted 18 flights over Brazil and Bolivia using the German research aircraft HALO to measure greenhouse gases such as methane and CO₂. The data supports the validation of satellite missions and helps distinguish between natural and anthropogenic sources of methane, which is crucial for global climate models. more
