Analysis of spatiotemporal variations in middle-tropospheric to upper-tropospheric methane during the Wenchuan <i>M</i><sub>s</sub> = 8.0 earthquake by three indices

<p>This research studied the spatiotemporal variation in methane in the middle to upper troposphere during the Wenchuan earthquake (12 May 2008) using AIRS retrieval data and discussed the methane anomaly mechanism. Three indices were proposed and used for analysis. Our results show that the m...
