After a decade of near-zero growth in methane levels, "globally averaged atmospheric methane increased by [approximately] 7 nmol/mol per year during 2007 and 2008. During the first half of 2009, globally averaged atmospheric CH 4 was [approximately] 7 nmol/mol greater than it was in 2008, suggesting that the increase will continue in 2009."
According to the Global Methane Assessment published in 2021, methane emissions from livestock (including cattle) are the largest sources of agricultural emissions worldwide [10] A single cow can make up to 99 kg of methane gas per year. [11] Ruminant livestock can produce 250 to 500 L of methane per day. [12]
The level of the water table represents the boundary between anaerobic methane production and aerobic methane consumption. When the water table is low, the methane generated within the wetland soil has to come up through the soil and get past a deeper layer of methanotrophic bacteria , thereby reducing emission.
The 2.8 parts per million increase in carbon dioxide airborne levels from January 2023 to December, wasn't as high as the jumps were in 2014 and 2015, but they were larger than every other year ...
Increases in levels of carbon dioxide – the main greenhouse gas – from 2020 to 2021 was larger than the average annual growth rate over the last decade, with concentrations reaching 415.7 ...
Average levels in 2016 reached 403.3 parts per million, up from 400 parts per million in 2015. The amount of CO2 in the atmosphere reached a record high in 2016, according to the World ...
Otherwise temperature is equilibrium of vapor over liquid. Note that these are all negative temperature values. Methane vapor pressure vs. temperature.
In 2022, the concentrations of CO 2 and methane had increased by about 50% and 164%, respectively, since 1750. [108] These CO 2 levels are higher than they have been at any time during the last 14 million years. [109] Concentrations of methane are far higher than they were over the last 800,000 years. [110]
