Rising greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations are driving rapid global climate change but the partitioning of GHG emissions between different sources and regions is not fully understood. I study  GHG emissions from anthropogenic and natural sources using aircraft and satellite observations. Currently my research focuses on the loss of methane from offshore oil and gas platforms.
