Source at https://doi.org/10.5194/acp-18-17207-2018 . Methane (CH 4 ) is a powerful greenhouse gas. Its atmospheric mixing ratios have been increasing since 2005. Therefore, quantification of CH 4 sources is essential for effective climate change mitigation. Here we report observations of the CH 4 m...
