Cities are main contributors to the CO2 rise in the atmosphere. It is clear that accurate
estimates of the magnitude of anthropogenic and natural urban emissions are needed to …

This paper provides a dynamic inter-and intra-city analysis of spatial and temporal patterns
of urban land-use change. It is the first comparative analysis of a system of rapidly …

Urban areas are the dominant source of US fossil fuel carbon dioxide (FFCO 2) emissions.
In the absence of binding international treaties or decisive US federal policy for greenhouse …

Non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) sensors are a low-cost way to observe carbon dioxide
concentrations in air, but their specified accuracy and precision are not sufficient for some …

Atmospheric methane (CH 4) continues to increase, but there are multiple anthropogenic
source categories that can be targeted for cost-effective emissions reduction. Cities emit CH …
