Abstract The 2017–2027 National Academies' Decadal Survey, Thriving on Our Changing
Planet, recommended Surface Biology and Geology (SBG) as a “Designated Targeted …

Imaging spectroscopy in the visible-to-shortwave infrared wavelength range (VSWIR), or
nowadays more commonly known as 'hyperspectral imaging', for terrestrial Earth …

We review the capability of current and scheduled satellite observations of atmospheric
methane in the shortwave infrared (SWIR) to quantify methane emissions from the global …

Methane emissions from solid waste may represent a substantial fraction of the global
anthropogenic budget, but few comprehensive studies exist to assess inventory …

Carbon dioxide and methane emissions are the two primary anthropogenic climate-forcing
agents and an important source of uncertainty in the global carbon budget. Uncertainties are …

Industrial emissions play a major role in the global methane budget. The Permian basin is
thought to be responsible for almost half of the methane emissions from all US oil-and gas …

The detection and repairment of methane leaks from fossil fuel production activities have
been identified as a key climate change mitigation strategy. Several types of optical satellite …

Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas and is targeted for emissions mitigation by the US
state of California and other jurisdictions worldwide,. Unique opportunities for mitigation are …

Rapid identification of anomalous methane sources in oil/gas fields could enable corrective
action to fight climate change. The GHGSat‐D satellite instrument measuring atmospheric …

Anthropogenic methane emissions originate from a large number of relatively small point
sources. The planned GHGSat satellite fleet aims to quantify emissions from individual point …
