Researchers will develop new ways to monitor carbon emissions from vast swathes of peatland after winning almost half a million pounds to develop new sensors that can be used in remote areas. Dr Mann and his team will work across the UK to develop low-cost sensor systems that can monitor carbon dioxide and methane emissions from peatlands.

In what seems to be a first, a UK methane leak has been spotted from space, and mitigated. Methane leaking from a faulty pipe in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, was picked up by satellites orbiting 500km overhead in April 2023. The source, near Cheltenham, was releasing methane at a rate of over 200 kg/hr.

An open-access Methane Map will be launched at COP28 in a bid to accelerate abatement of this greenhouse gas, considered second only to CO2 as a cause of global warming. Environmental intelligence company Kayrros will launch the live map, which draws insights from its flagship Methane Watch product. Doing so would have a huge impact.

Researchers have developed a new sensor that they suggest could allow practical and low cost detection of low concentrations of methane gas. Measuring methane emissions is important because the gas contributes to global warming and air pollution. The new sensor uses an interband cascade light emitting device (ICLED).

Fracking operations at a site in Blackpool, UK, have caused an unintended release of methane gas into the atmosphere to the equivalent environmental cost of 142 trans-Atlantic flights according to new research. Three different methods were used to estimate the methane release rate. km deep shale gas well.
