| dc.description.abstract | Atmospheric methane (CH₄) concentrations have more than doubled over the last two centuries. These increases may contribute to global warming, enhance formation of tropospheric ozone, suppress OH and affect stratospheric ozone. Calculations show that stabilization of CH₄ could reduce projected temperature increases and possibly mitigate background tropospheric O₃ increases due to increasing levels of CH₄. | |
