Methane, both a vital energy resource and a potent greenhouse gas, is produced and modified by a number of geological and biological processes. Recent advances in isotopic characterisation have ...

An electron microscope image of single-celled methanogens, members of the archaea branch of the tree of life. They are ubiquitous in oxygen-free environments, turning simple foods into methane, a ...

Analyzing data from airborne campaigns, the study reveals that older shallow-water platforms in Angola emit more methane than ...

When looking at greenhouse gases and methane emissions, many are asking, how does methane affect global warming and how can we reduce greenhouse gas? How Does Methane Affect Global Warming With ...

Microbes that consume methane could be used to help slow global warming. Researchers have identified many methane-eating bacteria, known as methanotrophs, but in nature these organisms tend to take in ...

High above Earth, a cutting-edge satellite is zooming around the planet 15 times a day. It is hunting for leaks of methane — an invisible, super-polluting gas that is dramatically warming the planet.

UNL researchers are linking cattle genetics and rumen microbes to find ways to cut methane losses and boost feed efficiency ...

The measured transit spectrum (top) and eclipse spectrum (bottom) of WASP-80 b from NIRCam’s slitless spectroscopy mode on NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. In both spectra, there is clear evidence ...

Tropical seaweeds Sargassum binderi and Kappaphycus striatum show promise as ruminant feed additives to reduce methane emissions and enhance productivity. The study highlights the nutritional and ...

Human activities now account for two-thirds of all methane venting to the atmosphere, and our efforts to staunch the flow are not yet bearing fruit. When you purchase through links on our site, we may ...
