Assessing alternative methane emission metrics conducive to quantifying global warming and setting near-term climate goals
Climate metrics, like Global Warming Potential (GWP), are frequently relied on to relate emissions of greenhouse gasses (GHGs) to globally averaged temperature change. However, most metrics struggle to accurately represent temperature change across different time scales, especially in response to sh...
