Direct conversion of methane (CH 4) to high-value-added chemicals at room temperature, by directly using abundant and low-cost molecular oxygen (O 2) as an oxidant, is an ideal route for CH 4 ...

A mid-infrared laser-based sensor is reported for the quantification of fugitive methane emissions. The sensor is based on a distributed feedback inter-band cascade laser operating near 3.3 μm.

In this study we investigated to what extent niche partitioning of MOB occurs along the natural oxygen–methane counter gradient in four stratified lakes in order to better understand MOB diversity and ...

Roughly two-thirds of all atmospheric methane, a potent greenhouse gas, comes from methanogens. Tracking down which methanogens in which environment produce methane with a specific isotope signature ...

Methane — a greenhouse gas far more potent than carbon dioxide — plays a major role in controlling the Earth’s climate. But methane concentrations in the atmosphere today are 150% higher than before ...

Methane emissions from wetlands are rising faster than those from industrial sources, prompting concerns about a climate feedback loop. Methane emissions from wetlands are rising faster than those ...
