Deseret News: Four research planes and more than two dozen scientists and technologists are wrapping up a monthlong study in the Four Corners area. They have been trying to figure out the source of the nation`s largest concentration of airborne methane. In the region where Utah rubs shoulders with three other states, satellite imagery detected the nation's worst methane hot spot. "That`s a huge anomaly," said Andrew Thorpe from the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. "But we don`t know exactly where the methane...

EcoWatch: One tiny section in the U.S. is responsible for a significant amount of the country`s methane emissions, according to new information released by scientists from NASA and the University of Michigan. In a study published this week, they analyzed satellite-gathered data and found that an area about 2,500 square miles, near the "Four Corners" where Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico and Utah connect, produces the largest concentration of these greenhouse gas emissions ever found in the U.S., more than...

One small "hot spot" in the U.S. Southwest is responsible for producing the largest concentration of the greenhouse gas methane seen overthe United States– more than triple the standard ground-based estimate -- according to a new study of satellite data by scientists at NASA and theUniversity of Michigan
Satellites see hot spot of methane in US Southwest

Associated Press: A surprising hot spot of the potent global-warming gas methane hovers over part of the southwestern U.S., according to satellite data. That result hints that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and other agencies considerably underestimate leaks of methane, which is also called natural gas. The higher level of methane is not a local safety or a health issue for residents, but factors in overall global warming. It is likely leakage from pumping methane out of coal mines. While methane isn't...
