Space-based methane maps find largest U.S. signal in Southwest
2014-10-11 18:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: An unexpectedly high amount of the climate-changing gas methane, the main component of natural gas, is escaping from the Four Corners region in the U.S. Southwest, according to a new study by the University of Michigan and NASA. The researchers mapped satellite data to uncover the nation's largest methane signal seen from space. They measured levels of the gas emitted from all sources, and found more than half a teragram per year coming from the area where Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Utah...

How scientists overlooked 2,500-square-mile cloud of methane over Southwest
2014-10-11 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Christian Science Monitor: Scientists have identified the largest hotspot of methane gas in the United States hovering over the Four Corners region of the Southwest, and the find could have big implications for how the country tracks its emissions in the future. Scientists first noticed the data years ago amid satellite measurements collected by the European Space Agency's Scanning Imaging Absorption Spectrometer for Atmospheric Chartography (SCIAMACHY) instrument. The SCIAMACHY instrument collected atmospheric data over...

Natural Gas Production Causing Large Methane Hotspot Over U.S. Southwest
2014-10-10 20:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Yale Environment 360: A single methane hotspot in the U.S. Southwest accounts for 10 percent of the nations total estimated methane emissions, according to an analysis by researchers at the University of Michigan and Caltech. The area is centered in New Mexico's San Juan Basin near the shared borders of Colorado, Utah, and Arizona -- the site of the largest and most active coalbed natural gas production operation in the U.S. Natural gas from the basin is more than 95 percent methane, a significantly more potent heat-trapping...
