Natural and Anthropogenic Emissions of Carbon Dioxide and Methane

Professor Jackson will discuss sources of methane and carbon dioxide and opportunities to reduce them. The methane work will describe a new global fluxnet synthesis for methane from wetlands and other habitats and measurements of natural gas released from oil and gas infrastructure. The CO2 component will include global trends in emissions and energy use along with vulnerabilities and opportunities for carbon storage in managed and unmanaged ecosystems.
