    The correlation between methanol (CH3OH) and carbon monoxide (CO) is of particular interest for characterizing biogenic and anthropogenic emission sources of CH3OH and other chemical species. Here, the CH3OH/CO enhancement ratio (?CH3OH/?CO) in the lower to middle troposphere is examined using...

    Global wetlands are believed to be climate sensitive, and are the largest natural emitters of methane (CH4). Increased wetland CH4 emissions could act as a positive feedback to future warming. The Wetland and Wetland CH4 Inter-comparison of Models Project (WETCHIMP) investigated our present...

  • Carbon Credits Central to Preventing Catastrophe. Spratt, David; Lawson, Damien // Chain Reaction;Mar2007, Issue 99, p14 

    The article discusses a report by Christian Aid and EcoEquity regarding the global emergency on climate heating. The report stresses the need for efforts to have a likelihood of preventing a climate catastrophe. It indicates that by 2010, emissions should intensify and fall by 4% every year to...
