The Total Carbon Column Observing Network (#TCCON): 27+ spectrometers in 16+ countries recording near-IR solar spectra since 2004. Aiming to quantify geographic patterns of #GHG emissions and uptake and provide satellite validation for #GOSAT, #OCO2/#OCO3, TROPOMI, and more!

The SRON Netherlands Institute for Space Research is looking for 2 postdocs to work on global emissions of methane from the oil and gas sector using TROPOMI data: drive.google.com/file/d/1p3XHC6… #AtmChemAeroJobs

My group is looking for a postdoc to study greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions from waste treatment, starting early next year. Please share! …7-4be3-8ca6-bbc0e4ac9c1f.usrfiles.com/ugd/57cf07_228…

Ny-Ålesund (78.9 N, 11.9 E) #TCCON, located on Spitsbergen in Norway's Svalbard archipelago, is known for its long time series (polar day NIR measurements since 2005) and large seasonal xCO2 cycles. Site is operated by #UBremen and funded by the EU projects IMECC and GEOmon.

We're in for quite the winter, a fitting end for 2020. Here's what you need to know about cold weather and #coronavirus ⬇️

New paper describing our approach for quantifying methane emissions in Toronto with mobile measurements (some by bike!). Work by Dr. Ars, and in close collaboration with Felix Vogel. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

This coming Friday's #FACSS webinar will be given by Ron Cohen CohenLabBerkeley on mapping urban emissions at neighborhood scale resolution. Join us! Sign up for the email list at facss.mit.edu to register for the webinar

Nice analysis by talented (former) post-doc Jacob Hedelius looking at regional and urban-scale carbon monoxide trends from 16 years of MOPITT satellite 🛰️data: doi.org/10.1029/2020JD…. Supporting data from TCCON and MkIV Sun spectrometer. Thanks to Canadian Space Agency for funding!

Want to know how food cooking generates air pollutants? Come see my Centre for Global Change Science seminar next Tuesday at 4-5pm EDT! Title: "Breathing your food – Indoor and outdoor air quality impacts of food cooking" DM me for Zoom link and password.

Our new paper penned by Nasrin Pak describes the Facility Level and Area Methane Emissions inventory for the Greater Toronto Area (FLAME-GTA 🔥). In collaboration with Felix Vogel and other great colleagues at U of T and ECCC. doi.org/10.1016/j.atmo…

NEW GGG2020 datasets have been posted to the TCCON archive: tccondata.org! Missing datasets will be added shortly. Data Use Guidelines are posted: tccon-wiki.caltech.edu/Main/DataUseGu…. We are looking forward to working with you!

Our new paper uses three satellites (OCO-2, OCO-3, and TROPOMI) to look at urban enhancement ratios of NO2, CO, and CO2. From our analysis, it looks like global urban CO inventories could be underestimated.

Recently funded Toronto Atmospheric Monitoring Emissions project is hiring a Research Associate for a 3-year position working on urban greenhouse gases and air pollutants. Project is led by Debra Wunch, w co-Is @SVOCora, Dan Weaver, Dylan Jones + me jobs.utoronto.ca/job/Toronto-Re…

Out now: our paper on investigating methane emissions from natural gas distribution in 12 cities across 8 countries. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

New data description paper: The Total Carbon Column Observing Network's GGG2020 data version doi.org/10.5194/essd-1…

A paper from Prof. Debra Wunch's lab looked at the ability of the Greenbelt to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and modelled its ability to remove carbon dioxide if the proposal to develop parcels of the Greenbelt was passed. buff.ly/3UWBKBs

Extreme fires in Canada in 2023 emitted more carbon than many industrialized nations. 🔥 Fire emissions are typically reabsorbed as forests regrow, unlike fossil fuel emissions. But if these events become more typical, they could impact global climate: go.nasa.gov/4dx9Hzz

Emissions from last year’s Canadian wildfires more than most countries: study. Last year, the top three emitters of heat-trapping carbon pollution were China, the United States and India. Just missing the podium, in fourth place is Canada. trib.al/Jy4CcdY
