2. Greenhouse gas monitoring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse_gas_monitoring

   Concentrations in ppm of the major greenhouse gases between 1978 and 2010. Greenhouse gas monitoring is the direct measurement of greenhouse gas emissions and levels. There are several different methods of measuring carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere, including infrared analyzing and manometry.

3. Greenhouse gas - Wikipedia

   This is an accepted version of this page This is the latest accepted revision, reviewed on 9 December 2024. Gas in an atmosphere with certain absorption characteristics This article is about the physical properties of greenhouse gases. For how human activities are adding to greenhouse gases, see Greenhouse gas emissions. Greenhouse gases trap some of the heat that results when sunlight heats ...

4. Total Carbon Column Observing Network - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_Carbon_Column...

   Sunlight is directed into the spectrometer by solar tracking mirrors and other optics. The spectrometers measure the absorption of direct sunlight by atmospheric trace gases primarily in the near infrared region. This remote sensing technique produces a precise and accurate measurement of the total column abundance of the trace gas. The main ...

5. Carbon monitoring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_monitoring

   Carbon monitoring as part of greenhouse gas monitoring refers to tracking how much carbon dioxide or methane is produced by a particular activity at a particular time. For example, it may refer to tracking methane emissions from agriculture, or carbon dioxide emissions from land use changes, such as deforestation, or from burning fossil fuels, whether in a power plant, automobile, or other device.

6. Space-based measurements of carbon dioxide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space-based_measurements...

   Remote sensing of trace gases has several challenges. Most techniques rely on observing infrared light reflected off Earth's surface. Because these instruments use spectroscopy, at each sounding footprint a spectrum is recorded—this means there is a significantly (about 1000×) more data to transfer than what would be required of just an RGB pixel.

7. Greenhouse Gases Observing Satellite-2 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenhouse_Gases_Observing...

   The Greenhouse Gases Observing Satellite-2 (GOSAT-2), also known as Ibuki-2 (Japanese: いぶき2号, Hepburn: Ibuki nigō), is an Earth observation satellite dedicated to greenhouse gas monitoring. It is a successor of Greenhouse Gases Observing Satellite (GOSAT).
