We present a hierarchical Bayesian method for atmospheric trace gas inversions. This
method is used to estimate emissions of trace gases as well as" hyper-parameters" that …

Subsea permafrost and hydrates in the East Siberian Arctic Shelf (ESAS) constitute a
substantial carbon pool, and a potentially large source of methane to the atmosphere …

The Arctic is a critical region in terms of global warming. Environmental changes are already
progressing steadily in high northern latitudes, whereby, among other effects, a high …

Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) is an ozone‐depleting substance, accounting for about 10% of
the chlorine in the troposphere. Under the terms of the Montreal Protocol, its production for …

Inverse modelling of the emissions of atmospheric species and pollutants has significantly
progressed over the past 15 years. However, in spite of seemingly reliable estimates, the …

Northern wetlands may be vulnerable to increased carbon losses from methane (CH4), a
potent greenhouse gas, under current warming trends. However, the dynamic nature of …

Satellite observations offer information applicable to top‐down constraints on emission
inventories through inverse modeling. Here we compare two methods of inverse modeling …

Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) are used in a range of industrial applications and have largely
replaced previously used gases (CFCs and HCFCs). HFCs are not ozone-depleting but …

The Integrated Carbon Observation System Atmosphere Thematic Centre (ICOS ATC)
automatically processes atmospheric greenhouse gases mole fractions of data coming from …

Atmospheric trace gas inversions often attempt to attribute fluxes to a high-dimensional grid
using observations. To make this problem computationally feasible, and to reduce the …
